Synopsis:
Around the world, people are finding creative ways to educate and empower young women –- creating cascading benefits for families, communities, and the planet.
In the Democratic Republic of Congo, Neema Namadamu and her NGO "Hero Women Rising" combine social media and grass-roots activism to overcome poverty, war and patriarchal traditions.
In Dallas, Texas, where the high school pregnancy rate is 50 percent above the U.S. average, teens are making films to educate each other on reproductive choices for NTARUPT’s annual film festival.
“If you add up educating girls and family planning, empowering women is the number one solution to address global warming.” Dr. Katharine Wilkinson, Project Drawdown.
"Young Women Rising" was produced by Link TV, the US national satellite channel, as the first episode of the Emmy Award-winning "Global Mosaic" series, which was also broadcast in Mexico.
