Description
It's easy to believe the narrative that certain people are just "born" to change the world. But where does that leave the rest of us? Can anyone be a changemaker? Every person has the capacity to create change, with the right tools and support. Rise: How Empowering Women Elevates Us All puts the knowledge and tools for change into your hands, empowering you to go further than you ever thought possible. You will meet changemakers including: Xiye Bastida, who became a youth climate change activist after witnessing the effects of the earth's imbalance in her small, Mexican community Suhani Jalota, who founded Myna Mahila Foundation to provide affordable health products to adolescent girls and women in marginalized communities Angeline Makore, who escaped her fate as a child bride and now empowers other girls through her organization Spark R.E.A.D. Through the stories of these and other resilient women, you'll learn effective strategies to lift up the women around you and help them explore opportunities to create social impact. When we lift up women, we can create a more equitable society for people around the world.
