Camp GLOW: Empowering Young Women Around the World - Peace Corps

Peace Corps Volunteers are empowering young women by organizing Camp GLOW (Girls Leading Our World) activities that encourage self confidence and challenge campers to think beyond traditional gender roles.

The first Camp GLOW was established in 1995 when Peace Corps/Romania Volunteers and the Romanian teachers they worked with came together to address the unique challenges that local young women faced. Over the last 15 years, Peace Corps Volunteers worldwide have since seized on the successful Camp GLOW model and implemented their own programs.
