We owe a great debt of gratitude to the women around the world who have led the march towards gender equality in their families, homes, workplaces and communities. Women like Safia*, a survivor of female genital mutilation who lost one daughter to the practice and refused to subject her second daughter to it, and 15-year-old Ngoma*, who is raising awareness about sexual and gender-based violence and rallying her community to defend the rights of their girls...

Only by investing in the societal, economic and political inclusion of women and girls will we strengthen our social fabric and create something truly beautiful: A future that works for all.
