REFLECTION QUESTIONWomen and Girls Host a Film ScreeningWhat is the next step beyond raising awareness of women's and gender equality issues?
Rachel Powers 4/23/2018 10:19 AMThe challenge is to host a film screening relating to educating girls. It would have been helpful to if you had provided a list of films that might be appropriate. I host a monthly film screening, but I am not familiar with relevant films.-

Mary Remar 4/23/2018 11:15 AMHere is a suggestion. I have not seen this film: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1778368/ -
Mary Remar 4/23/2018 11:14 AMThanks. I thought this was really interesting. That the education of girls is the 6th most impactful item toward reducing carbon emissions... ??? How does that figure? Amazing. Very curious.
