How Resonate Workshops Is Making a Difference

Resonate Workshops unlocks the leadership potential of East African women and girls by partnering with organizations that provide vocational and other hard-skills training.  Resonate integrates its leadership-building workshops into those programs to ensure that women and girls have self-confidence as well as access to skills and resources that will allow them to realize their full potential.

Work of Resonate Workshops

  • Offers a core workshop, Storytelling for Leadership, that helps women and girls speak up, gain confidence, and make decisions.
  • Works with young people in 12-week sessions to help them gain experience by developing and implementing community projects.
  • Intensely trains staff from partner organizations to deliver and facilitate Resonate’s program content effectively.

Initiatives Supported by Project Redwood
