On International Women’s Day, UN Women’s HeForShe movement issued a global call to leaders to join the newly formed HeForShe Alliance and help accelerate progress toward gender equality.
Launched by UN Women Global Goodwill Ambassador Emma Watson, HeForShe is a solidarity movement and an international platform that engages men and boys as allies to support the work of the women’s movement and ultimately create an equal world for all.
“The role of government, private sector and third sector is critical in advancing gender equality,” said Edward Wageni, Global Head of HeForShe. “We are aiming to partner with today’s most ambitious leaders who will not only act as role models in their industries but join forces with HeForShe to truly accelerate the pace of change.”
The HeForShe Alliance presents a unique opportunity for organizations and institutions from across the globe to join a network of 12-14 industry leaders, to partner alongside heads of state and together create long-lasting change.
