Abstract
Girl empowerment organizations (GEOs) emerged in the USA around the same time that empowering girls became a central theme in international development discourse. I argue that these organizations are part of a ‘market of empowerment’ that aims to empower girls within a context of commodified girl power and neoliberal entrepreneurialism.
