Global Give Back Circle exists to educate and advance pathways to financial inclusion and work for HER.
60 Days. One Learning Question. Real Evidence.
Every 60 days we share new evidence around a critical learning question designed to allow all of us to understand, and do something about, the challenges and barriers keeping at-risk young women in the margins. At Global Give Back Circle, we believe data is not meant to sit in a report. It is meant to broaden everyone’s frame of reference, shift systems and spark change.
Read. Watch. View. Share with others.
60 Days. One Question. Real Evidence.
Every 60 days, we ask a critical question rooted in the real challenges facing women and girls in our communities. It drives a focused sprint of action and honest inquiry and at the end, we share what we’ve learned. Because at GGBC, data is not meant to sit in a report. It is meant to move people, shift systems, and spark change.
The Learning Question
2026 Learning Series - Question 1
How do marginalized, young women in rural Kenya define dignity, fulfillment, and respect, and how do these definitions manifest in their professional and personal goals?
Beyond the Numbers ®
Global Give Back Circle partnered with Mastercard Foundation on a pilot program to inform the scale-up of HER Lab in rural Kenya. Participants were young women from West Pokot, most between ages 15 and 35, who face barriers in education and work.

HER Stories
26-year-old Stella Chepyatich comes from Kapchemogen in West Pokot. After completing Form Four, her parents could not afford further schooling. Like many young people in her community, she found herself back at home, uncertain about her future. For two years, she collected and sold firewood by the roadside to survive.

The Podcast
Before we can speak about barriers, systems and solutions, we need to understand what young women themselves are reaching for.
