Heforshe
When the G20 leaders gathered in Osaka, women’s empowerment was high on the agenda. Ironically, only 2 of the 20 gathered leaders were women. The G20 gender pay gap is still at 17%, only 1 in 5 board members of the largest publicly listed companies in G20 countries are women, and only 10% of innovative startups have been founded by women. One reason is that too many men think the gender gap is not their fight. Yet for real change, men must also become champions for women and equality. Who are the heforshe’s you know?
