Snapshots of Change

Snapshots of Change is a groundbreaking series of short films made in 31 countries around the world to mark the 10th anniversary of the Beijing Fourth World Conference on Women (Beijing +10). Ten years ago the leaders of 189 countries who attended the Beijing Conference signed up to a landmark agreement, the Beijing "Platform for Action", committing themselves to women's rights, equality and empowerment - including, inter alia, the end of violence and discrimination against women, universal education for girls, and promoting more women in government, parliament and management positions. Ten years on, Snapshots of Change aims to show just how well they're delivering on those promises.
