Leading to Choices

Leading to Choices, developed by the Women’s Learning Partnership for Rights, Development, and Peace (WLP) in collaboration with its partner organizations in the Global South, is based on a conceptualization of leadership as horizontal, inclusive, and participatory. The alternative leadership model presented in this handbook responds to the need for leaders who aspire to create egalitarian, democratic, and pluralistic societies based on collaborative decision-making, coalition-building, and gender equality. The manual has been used in workshops around the world, where articipants have included women, young girls, and men; Muslims and Christians; and human rights activitists, university students, women NGO representatives, refugees, and domestic workers among others.
