Who we are
Lead Beyond Education.
We are dedicated to empowering young women from Culturally and Racially Marginalised (CARM) communities and refugee backgrounds. Our mission is to break down economic and educational barriers through leadership development, capacity building, and human rights advocacy.
Founded with the belief that every woman deserves the chance to succeed, we provide pathways for growth in leadership, education, and entrepreneurship. Our programs, including initiatives like Miss Sahara, are designed to inspire confidence, promote inclusivity, and create lasting social change. Together, we are building a future where all women can lead beyond limitations.
Our Programs
LBE works collaboratively with individuals and organisations to help women and girls achieve their full potential. We achieve this through various initiatives, primarily focused on three fundamental pillars:
Leadership
Seeks to break down education barriers and create pathways for stability and empowerment through its leadership and capacity-building programs.
Beauty (Miss Sahara)
Seeks to expand the broader Australian community’s notions of beauty in a multicultural Australian context whilst building pathways for young women of African heritage to be better represented in the mainstream beauty and modelling industries.
Economic literacy
Strengthening financial responsibility and financial literacy where young women can venture to enhance their self-reliance.
Our Impact
At Lead Beyond Education, we believe in the power of community impact. Our programs have reached hundreds of young women, transforming lives and fostering future leaders.
