Our Mission: Project Soar is a feminist teen girls’ organization and movement established in Morocco in 2015. Through a scalable empowerment program, called Soar in a Box, Project Soar builds the capacity of teen girls to be the feminist leaders of today and tomorrow. PS Methodology: PS uses its own signature 25-workshop empowerment curriculum. This Arabic and English language curriculum is based on five modules that are central to every empowered girl; PS Girls know their Value, Voice, Body, Rights, and Path. PS in a Box: The PS empowerment curriculum is packaged into a portable kit called Project Soar in a Box (PSB). Each PSB provides a team of two trained local women Empowerment Facilitators with all the tools they need to lead a “squad” of 15-20 teen girls through the program. PS Footprint: PS has an active network of over 6,620 PS girls and continues growing the teen feminist movement. Our replicable, scalable PSB model currently has 99 activated sites in Morocco, Syria, and Lebanon, with a network of 174 trained female facilitators. PS Impact: As a PS Girl progresses through each module, she undergoes a transformative process whereby she further develops her self-confidence; speaks up; embraces her adolescent body; advocates for her rights and the rights for all girls; and sets future goals. Although coming from the lowest socio-economic class, PS girls do better than other more privileged teen girls: 90% of PS Girls passed their High School Entry Exam vs 67.9% of all students nationwide, 32% higher than the national average for both boys and girls. 95% of PS Girls passed their Baccalaureate Exam vs 54.3% of all girls nationwide. 75.5% higher than the national average for girls. 94.5% of PS Girls continued on to higher education vs. 51.4% of all girls nationwide, 83.8% higher than the national average for girls. Only 1.4% of PS Girls married underage, 91.25% lower than the national child marriage average of 16%.

On December 4th, we had the honor of hosting a Menstrual Health Soar Dialogue at Ibn Maja, joined by amazing representatives from United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) Morocco and the United Nations. Together, we engaged with 25 incredible girls in meaningful discussions about menstruation, breaking stigmas, and understanding the body’s reproductive system. ✨ Through these conversations, we introduced the BIGGER Health Movement, empowering young minds to embrace their health with confidence and pride. 💪💖 Let’s keep spreading awareness and breaking barriers!

🌟 When we at the ABURY Foundation first thought about education, we focused on the basics—reading, writing, languages, and math. But along the way, we learned soft skills are just as critical, if not more so. Developed by Project Soar and their visionary founder Maryam Montague in Morocco, we’re proud to support a transformative program designed to empower teenage girls in five key areas: 🔅 Value - Self-esteem - she knows she is as valuable as a boy. 🔅 Voice - She communicates her thoughts and advocates for herself and others. 🔅 Body - She values her own health and wellbeing. 🔅 Rights - She embraces her right to an education and understands her right to be free from violence, sexual harassment, and early and forced marriage. 🔅 Path - She cares about her education and has tools to envision her future. These modules go beyond academics, equipping girls with the self-confidence, knowledge of their rights, and a vision for their future. Why is this so important? Because confident young girls who know their worth grow into empowered women—women who stand up for themselves, lead with purpose, and inspire change. This is particularly crucial in a context where approximately 70% of women in Morocco still face domestic violence. Self-worth isn’t just a personal trait—it’s a foundation for equality, resilience, and leadership. 💪 Let’s continue to invest in programs that shape future women leaders and create a world where every girl knows her value. #GirlsEmpowerment #SoftSkillsMatter #ProjectSoar #LeadershipDevelopment #EndDomesticViolence #EducationForChange
We were happy to receive you, Asmus Wollny! We value the work you do and the knowledge you bring to the table! Thank you Personio Foundation, and we hope to receive you again soon!
Earlier this week, I had the privilege of visiting Project Soar, an inspiring NGO supported by the Personio Foundation, in Marrakesh. We had a full agenda focused on setting up their recruiting process within their Personio account, and training hiring managers on how to fully digitize their recruitment efforts using Personio. It was incredible to witness firsthand how just a few hours of face-to-face interaction can drive such a meaningful impact! Gone are the days of printing applications, filing them in massive folders, and scribbling notes by hand. From now on, Project Soar will manage their entire recruiting process digitally—from crafting job postings and publishing them on social media and job boards, to receiving, managing, and evaluating candidates, all the way through to generating work contracts—everything will now be handled seamlessly within their Personio account. Shukran bsef to Hanane kharrazi and the entire team for having me!

While this chapter ends, our fight for girls' rights continues stronger than ever. 💜 A huge thank you to CISU and Civil Connections for standing with us on this journey of change. #BiggerMovement #endchildmarriage

This October, Soar Girls and facilitators united for the BIGGER Health project, building advocacy skills to champion menstrual health and hygiene rights. Here’s a look at what they learned and how they’re preparing to make a difference! The BIGGER Health project empowers over 130 Moroccan teen girls to mobilize, advocate, and push for change on menstrual health issues, addressing challenges like limited access to menstrual products and inadequate WASH facilities. 🌍❤️ Special thanks to AmplifyChange for supporting this initiative and making this impactful training a reality! #MyPeriodMyRights #SoarGirls #BIGGERHealth
