The Hidden Economics of Remarkable Women (HERO)
A Foreign Policy series about women creating change through economic empowerment, hosted by Reena Ninan. This season, host Reena Ninan and reporters across Africa are focusing on one theme: the role of male allies. When are they effective? Why are they doing this work? And how do they influence men and boys? We visit religious leaders in Kenya, interview a former politician in Lesotho, and talk to male allies changing men’s attitudes toward gender-based violence in South Africa, among others. HER♀️ is a Foreign Policy production made possible in part through funding by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Check out the Season 4 trailer below:
