Susan Stall | Sex and World Peace: Why We Need to Care about Gender Equality
Research shows that gender equality and gender diversity improve economic development, promote peace, and improve the performance of companies and governments. While gender inequality impacts all women and men around the world, for some women and girls it is a matter of life or death. Every year 4 million women and girls disappear, simply because they are female. Through her work with one of the largest giving circles in the world, Dining for Women, Susan Stall has learned that we should all care about gender equality.
