摘要
Since co-founding the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation in 2000, Melinda Gates has worked on initiatives to improve healthcare and educational opportunities and reduce poverty around the world.
The foundation’s mission has taken her across Africa, India and Southeast Asia, as well as closer to home in the US.
Throughout her travels, she has met inspiring and courageous women struggling with extreme poverty, outmoded practices or lack of opportunities.
Their stories are recorded here, alongside hard data and some of Gates’ own experiences as a mother and wife.
The result is a candid and compelling case for raising women up and connecting with one another, for the good of society as a whole.
