GLOW stands for Girls Leading Our World.

It was founded in 1995 by three Peace Corps volunteers and four teachers in Romania. They took 80 female students on a week long camping trip to the mountains where they ran activities to promote self-confidence, leadership, career and life planning and self-awareness.

Since then, it has inspired a worldwide movement comprised of dedicated individuals and organizations who wish to provide safe and supportive environments to promote gender equality and give opportunities for young women in their communities to become active citizens.



Once a month, our GLOW Trieste Middle School and High School girls will have the chance to meet and connect with women from our community, in English, in a fun, creative, respectful environment at American Corner Trieste.


In the past two years, guest speakers lead interactive workshops and activities on topics such as: gender & marketing, self-defense, fashion design, medicine, graphic design, homemade hygiene and beauty products, knitting, dance, yoga, meditation, cooking and more!

Participation for all GLOW teens is FREE.
If you are an interested teen or you are a parent/guardian follow this LINK to our online registration form to make sure you have a spot in our upcoming events!

The more we are, the brighter we GLOW!
