She is family

She is your sister, your daughter, your wife, your friend.

She is family.

It doesn’t matter where she is born…
Every woman and girl deserves access to good food, clean water,
and the same opportunities as their husbands, sons, and brothers.

In Malawi, Mozambique and Zambia…
We are working alongside women and girls, men and boys, families and communities.
We are taking a holistic approach to a basic human right – the right to food.
We are challenging the status quo and creating the conditions for lasting change.

The fact is… true gender equality has no borders;
it must be global.

When women and girls are empowered, they create healthier families and stronger communities.

It’s time for every woman to be empowered by her right to food and nutrition.

It’s time to empower women everywhere.

It’s time for equality.

It’s time for change.

It starts… with you.

[This is the voice-over script I wrote for the first Feed Her Future video, which launched on April 29, 2019 (watch the video on YouTube). The video is a brief, emotional introduction to the main message of our campaign (@FeedHerFuture). It was no small feat to take one month, 3 countries and 20 hours of footage and boil it down into a single expression. But, the video turned out beautifully, and to me, this script always felt a bit like a poem 🙂 ]
