Public Leadership Education Network (PLEN) operates in the higher education sector from Washington, DC, focusing on leadership development in public policy for women and marginalized gender groups. It designs and delivers programs that educate participants about policy issues and governance, emphasizing inclusive policymaking and diverse leadership pathways. By connecting students with policy topics and experienced practitioners, PLEN seeks to broaden participation in public policy discussions. PLEN engages college students and partnering institutions through seminars and events hosted in Washington, DC. A recent example is the Fall 2025 Public Policy Seminar, which brought Bryn Mawr College students to participate in sessions on networking, law and public policy, health and STEM policy, and foreign policy. The organization has a history of leadership-focused initiatives, including the Leadership Connection Series launched in 2018 to bring college women and women leaders in Washington, DC to discuss staff diversity on Capitol Hill and women's leadership in energy policy.
