Launched in 2020 in response to the COVID pandemic, each year since then WOW has worked with our global partners to identify girls and non-binary young people aged 11-18 from across the globe, who are demonstrating extraordinary leadership in activism and leading campaigns for change in their town, city or country. Their passions are broad, encompassing climate justice, LGBTQIA+, eradicating poverty, access to education and many others. The WOW Young Leaders Directory is a mechanism to platform their activism, including a profile of each leader, describing their leadership journey.
