Are You #HeForShe?
HeForShe is a global solidarity movement for gender equality. It starts by inviting both women, men and boys to stand together to build a gender better world so that we can enjoy better lives together. It takes bold, visible step to tackle the inequality and build better society. With HeForShe global campaign created by UN Women in July 2014, the HeForShe campaign in South Korea has been developed by The Women’s News and supported by The Ministry of the Gender Equality & Family since May 2015.
If you say ‘No’ to sexism and bias, ‘Yes’ to gender equality, seek to create a better, more equal world wherever you are, you are HeForShe.
