About the Panel
Global Catalyst’s “Future-Proofing” panel puts a youth advocate in the moderator’s chair, giving her a stage to use her voice alongside influential women across industries.
Our youth moderator will lead a conversation with these leaders about the work being done to help youth lead, what it means to invest in rising stars, and how to future-proof an uncertain future. Together, they will explore how girls can lead.
100% of the proceeds from this event will support the Global Catalyst Built By Girls Project, funding access to critical advocacy resources for girls to design and implement community impact projects across the United States.
