Program planners, group leaders, parents, and teachers: this page features program activities and games to help young people better understand the workings of their government and the roles that women play in the process, and exercises to enhance the capacity of girls and young women for public leadership.
Some of these activities were developed by CAWP, and others come from our allied organizations around the country.
