WORLD WOMAN HOUR
There are still a lack of relevant role models for girls as we have not come as far as we think we have in terms of equality. So, how do you cut through the superficiality of online content to a young global female audience?
You provide inspiration for girls around the world at a time when they experience self doubt amongst many other obstacles. They need to find just 1 woman like them, to help them believe in themselves. We created a rich, diverse content platform that empowers and inspires.
THE INSIGHT
We don’t need 20, 50 or 100.
We only need to see 1 hero to believe
“if she can do it, So can I”.
THE IDEA
