On Thursday, March 15, Barnard's 2012 Young Women's Leadership Workshop was held at the Cathedral and John Connon School in Mumbai. See below for media coverage of the event.
 
The workshop for high school girls, led by Barnard students, was featured in the print edition of The Hindustan Times:
 
In the Education Times, Barnard President Debora Spar is quoted in an article about the event. “The first part of the agenda was to get these students out of their comfort zones through role play and various other activities. We want to make them realise the different perspectives of leadership. Leadership has various aspects to it like negotiations, compromise, and persuasion among others. We are trying to awaken their true potential,” she said.
