International Women’s Day 2020 Special
Sarah Brown talks to guests at Â鶹APPÂ鶹APP™s sixth International WomenÂ鶹APP™s Day event, where women from all walks of life, with a few men dotted around, gathered to talk and share their experiences, contacts and ideas on how to unlock big change for girls and young women.
We hear Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, former Nigerian finance minister and World Bank managing director, nearly moved to tears as she accepted our first Unlock Big Change award.
We hear from other inspiring women, including Jo Brand, self-proclaimed Â鶹APP˜comic, writer, mother and super-modelÂ鶹APP™; Amrit Kaur Lohia, musician and Â鶹APP Global Youth Ambassador; Nyasha Duri, a Global Youth Ambassador and award winning social entrepreneur; Sophie Walker, chief executive of the Young WomenÂ鶹APP™s Trust; Yvette Cooper MP, chair of the Home Affairs Select Committee; Leena Nair, Chief HR Officer at Unilever; Rosemary Leith Berners-Lee, co-founder of the Web Foundation; Dr Anne-Marie Imafidon, mathematician and co-founder of the Stemettes, and not forgetting, of course, Â鶹APPÂ鶹APP™s very own Jamira Burley, who hosted the event.
