1.5 YEARS OF PLANNING – 18 GLOBAL LOCATIONS - 100+ DELIVERY VOLUNTEERS - 107 COUNTRIES - £250,000 OF GRANTS GIVEN - 156 HOURS OF PROGRAMME - 500 PARTICIPANTS - 50,000 GIRLS.

The IMPACT REPORT was complied 18 months after the conclusion of the JLS in 2021. This report documents the impact of the 100 Girls Projects undertaken by participants when they returned home after their 2019 JLS experience.
The 100 Girls Project was a key element of innovation of the JLS model. The newly defined project format served as a torch to bring the power of this global leadership event to Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting at the grassroots level. Moreover, it was a chance for each participant to embed their learnings and become connected to other Juliette Low Seminar attendees around the world.

I've never seen so much diversity in one place before. I've met so many inspiring people from all over the world. I was learning as much as I was enjoying myself. It's an honour to be a part of JLS 2019. From learning new skills to overcoming fear, I believe I've become a better version of myself.
