THE POWER OF
RADIANCE AWARDS 2021

Clé de Peau Beauté honors
an inspiring woman
for dedicating herself to bettering the lives
of girls through education

At Clé de Peau Beauté,
we believe that the key to
a better world lies
in unlocking the power of girls
through education.
The ‘Power of Radiance Award’
celebrates and honors women
who are taking action
and driving change
in their communities through girls’
STEM
(Science, Technology,
Engineering, Math) education.
Increasing the advancement of girls
and women in STEM fields
can help equip them
with the skills
to secure higher earning jobs
of the future
and in turn spur
socio-economic advancement
for their communities1.
We believe that each woman possesses
a true radiance of inner strength
and by unlocking and unleashing it,
she can achieve great things
and positively influence others.

“Education empowers future generations
to imagine a new world.”
