Keynote Speaker on Girls Empowerment & Leadership
Since starting GGP in 2014, Jules has become an in-demand voice on leadership and girls empowerment globally. Jules speaks with integrity and knowledge on international development, diversity, inclusion, leadership training, the mobilisation of youth, and community engagement.
Jules is a passionate, engaging and down-to-earth speaker who has the ability to connect with her audience in such a way that they leave feeling inspired and mobilized to create the changes they want to see. She speaks regularly to businesses and organizations about how to be a change-maker in one’s own life, world and work.
As the Founder and CEO Jules works in partnership with NGOs and schools globally to implement and run leadership programs and initiatives for girls throughout the Majority World (Global South). Jules runs the day-to-day operations of GGP from the United Kingdom.
Through GGP programming the impact in each local partner country has been evident. From an increase in self-confidence, leadership skills and self-perceived power and autonomy from the girls, to a shift in perception of gender roles and capabilities from local community members, the impact that is being created is truly global in scope.

About Jules
Jules Lynch founded Global Girl Project in 2014, after over twenty years working as a Community Social Worker and Therapist. During this time Jules traveled extensively, including time spent in Tanzania and Jamaica providing community and health services to local at-risk communities. This work ignited her passion for supporting marginalised girls, and GGP was born. As a woman of colour who grew up in a small, white town Jules learned from an early age how imperative it is to see yourself represented in positions of power and leadership. Since that time, Jules has worked tirelessly to not only be a role model for her global girls, but to train them on how to be role models and leaders to others within their communities.
