In this moving and narrative-driven book, the global philanthropist shares the stories of the people she has met during her work and travels, highlighting the critical link between women’s empowerment and societal progress.

As Melinda Gates writes, “How can we summon a moment of lift for human beings – and especially for women?” Throughout this narrative, she presents a timely call to action for gender equality. Backed by striking data and personal experiences, the book illustrates that when you lift up women, you lift up everyone—families, communities, and entire countries.

By studying the lives of women globally, the author identifies critical areas where change is needed most, including family planning, gender equality in the workplace, and unpaid labor.
