Today March 8th, 2017 it is International Women’s Day!
One woman inspired me in september 2014.
Her speech is since then my inspiration: Emma Watson at the HeForShe Campaign 2014 – Official UN Video
These are my inspirations for today, it all starts with awareness, gender equality:
YouTube: HeForShe Arts Week 2017 Press Launch
This is a video where you see in the first few minutes how it all started with the HeForShe Campaign and everything that has been done the past 2,5 years. A wonderful inspiration and it creates awareness widely.(68:40 min)

“Stand Together. What we share is more powerful than what divides us. Take action now to create a gender equal world.”
Take action or part in one of these issues:
- Education: “We all have the right to attend school and recieve a quality education.”
- Health: “We all have the right to receive quality healthcare and information.”
- Identity: “We all have the right to live and love free of limiting gender stereotypes.”
- Work: “We all have the right to equal opportunity and equal pay.”
- Violence: “We all have the right to live free from violence, harassment and fear.”
- Politics: “We all have the right to vote, serve and lead. “
