“The work produced by the GAL team has been, without exaggeration, revolutionary for our organization. We were honored to collaborate with Dr. Sidle and Dr. Oulo on the creation of the landmark Adolescent Girls Agency Scale (AGAS) and their expertise in participatory processes and vision for the potential of that tool were invaluable. Any GAL-backed project is one to watch in the adolescent girl-supporting sector.”

“At CAMFED we use the Adolescent Girls Agency Survey to measure outcomes that are otherwise hard to measure: agency, leadership potential, confidence and self-esteem. This provides us with vital evidence to support our life skills programming. We are grateful to the expertise of Girls' Agency Lab in developing and making widely available the AGAS tool as well as the opportunity to have collaborated in its development.”
