The Phenomenal Women Global Leadership Conference connects women across ages, professions and backgrounds to discuss thought leadership and sharing of best practices on diverse topics including: health & wellness, financial literacy, women in leadership, entrepreneurship, mentorship and career development. Participants also discuss social and legal challenges that women face including gender based violence, diversity, the gender pay gap, discrimination, harassment and restrictive legislation and policies.
Education is a key factor that contributes to the emergence of leaders and change makers. However in Africa several children drop out of school even before the complete compulsory primary education .PWG has created a scholarship fund to cover the cost of education of children with potential leadership capacity, especially those already in leadership positions in their schools.
PWG offers its members mentoring opportunities. This program is a great opportunity for both mentees and mentors alike and aims to support women/girls in different sectors including their careers, business, start-up entrepreneurships and students by bridging the gap between academic learning and work experiences, and developing soft skills and confidence.

Key recommendations and ideas are then built on in the various communities, through focal points volunteers and staff in the respective regions.
