What's this book about?

as well as the story of how Vital Voices was founded, crossing lines that typically divide.
For 15 years, Vital Voices has brought together women who want to
enable others to become change agents
in their governments, advocates for social justice, and supporters of democracy.

create jobs in their communities. Their voices, stories, and hard-earned
lessons--shared here for the first time--are deeply authentic and truly vital.

Through the firsthand accounts of trail-blazing leaders,
Vital Voices introduces unforgettable, inspiring women who are shaping our world
Why this book?
How women around the world are leading powerful change
Women's progress is global progress. Where there is an increase in women's university enrollment rates,
women's earnings, and maternal health, and a reduction in violence against women,
we see more prosperous communities, better educated, healthier families,
and the preservation of equal human rights. Yet globally, women remain the most consistently
under-utilized resource. Vital Voices calls for and makes possible
transformative leadership around the world.
My hope for the rest of 2020 is that you become a woman who finds her vital voice.
See you soon.
