IT'S TIME TO CLAIM OUR POWhER

Despite progress in recent years, women around the world still face many obstacles especially pertaining to global gender gaps in leadership. For instance:

13 out of 193

nations in the UN have women as heads of state

Less than 30%

of the world’s scientific researchers are women

Every hour, somewhere in the world, members of national parliaments or legislatures are making decisions on important issues, and worldwide only

24.3% of these key people are women

Only 37 of the Fortune 500 companies have a female as CEO, an all-time record

but a rate of only 7.4%

Minority women are especially underrepresented in STEM fields – of all U.S. women earning PhDs in science and engineering, fewer than

4% were Latina and under 3% were Black

Accelerate women's leadership in a bold new way

Today, women represent the most significant disruptive force of the world— however as per the recent Global Gender Gap Report, it will take 300 years to achieve gender equality.

We need next generation of future female leaders to deliver the UN Sustainable Development Goals 2030 (SDG 2030).

We can’t wait any longer, the timing is right to inspire young girls to find their hero. The one that helps them believe they can do whatever it is they want to.

To not give up. To not hold back. To be fearless in their pursuit to change the world. Every girl deserves a choice and a chance to make an impact. 

Join our global movement to accelerate future female leadership and inspire the next generation of young girls, in a bold new way that is about equality, choice and putting women’s voice on center stage.

Honoring women
building the new future that works for all

In celebration of Women’s History Month in March, we have brought together a world-class collection of women who have fought against stereotypes, powered through personal challenges and been able to achieve ideas that are changing the world. Often for the first time, with no guidebook to follow.

We honour these women by presenting 60 jam-packed minutes of their stories.

A riveting journey from second to second – from the emotional to the unexpected to the truly inspirational.

Hear how their uniqueness, and truly being themselves, is the key to discovering their purpose. Though there are no shortcuts in life, this hour will help steer any girl looking to find her way. And potentially change her life.
