In this episode, Mona Sinha, Global Executive Director of Equality Now, discusses her personal journey into advocacy, highlighting how she leverages her corporate and philanthropic background to champion gender equality.
She reflects on her upbringing in Calcutta, India, where growing up in a male-dominated, patriarchal society shaped her worldview and inspired her lifelong commitment to advocating for women's rights and equality. Mona shares how these early experiences fueled her passion for creating a more just and equitable world for women and girls globally.
