Welcome to the Dove Self-Esteem Project
At Dove, we believe no young person should be held back from reaching their full potential. However, low body confidence and anxieties over appearance stop young people being their best selves, affecting their health, friendships and even performance at school.
For more than 10 years, we’ve been helping parents, mentors, teachers and youth leaders deliver self-esteem education that's reached more than 20 million young people so far. Join us to help reach even more.

As a parent, it’s natural to want the best for your child – for them to be happy, healthy and confident individuals.
But that’s sometimes easier said than done, especially during the teen and pre-teen years when their bodies are changing, their self-confidence is fragile and they are trying to make that tricky transition out of childhood.

It's a shocking fact that eight out of 10 girls are so concerned about body image that they opt out of important life activities.
