The Garden of Hope Foundation (GOH) has officially launched the 2025 Asian Girls in Action Project, an initiative designed to empower young Asian girls by equipping them with leadership skills and the ability to implement projects aligned with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Open to girls aged 15 to 19 across Asia, the program provides selected participants with mentorship, financial support, and hands-on experience in leading impactful projects.
🔹 Project-Based Learning (PBL) Training: In collaboration with iEARN Taiwan, the program offers online and in-person training sessions to help participants develop practical project management and leadership skills.
🔹 Power Camp in Taiwan: Selected participants will be invited to Taiwan in July 2025 for a one-week Power Camp, where they will engage in co-creation activities, network with like-minded peers, and explore Taiwan’s initiatives in gender equality and sustainable development.
🔹 Project Implementation & Final Presentation: Participants will receive mini-grants to implement their trial projects in their local communities between August and September, culminating in a final presentation in October 2025, where top projects will be selected for additional support.
The program is open to girls aged 15-19 residing in any Asian country with a strong passion for SDGs and social innovation.
