The Pangea Network’s Young Women’s Leadership Conference (YWLC) is a six-day leadership workshop designed specifically for high school sophomores, juniors and seniors. The purpose of the workshop is to give young female leaders a network of inspired peers in their communities, and to learn more about the world and ways to create positive change.

YWLC brings together a diverse group of individuals who are interested in becoming better leaders and impactful global citizens. At YWLC, we cover a wide spectrum of skill sets to become successful adults, including financial literacy training, self-defense techniques, body image management—as well as debate strategy, volunteer efforts and guest speakers to inspire participants with their own stories of achievement.

The 2016 YWLC workshop will be held July 18 – 23 from 8 am – 4 pm at Rice University in Houston, Texas. For general inquiries please fill out the form to the right.
