At Pestalozzi, young women like Rishika are gaining the confidence and experience to lead from an early age.

As President of her school’s Child Club in Nepal, Rishika represents her peers, helps shape decisions, and takes on real responsibility within her community — developing the skills, resilience, and confidence that leadership requires.

Through the Pestalozzi Future Leaders Programme, students are encouraged to lead through action, collaboration, and lived experience — preparing them to create meaningful change in their communities and beyond.
