Color your world with inspirational women

Women and girls are diverse - and women and girls can be who, and what, they want to be. Who is a woman who inspires you - and why?

Choose an inspirational woman or motivational quote from below and get coloring! Use the moment to reflect upon and discuss the qualities and strengths you admire in women. Their paths have not been easy. Discuss why.  

Who are the women who inspire you?


Be inspired through these motivational reminders

Affirmations can be helpful, but they can in fact also set false illusions. Select an inspirational quote from below and get coloring. Use the moment to discuss why such quotes are motivational, but also to explore and reflect upon why for some women and girls around the world, positive affirmations alone certainly aren't enough to fix things.
