Sinopsis
Women and girls across the world are often made to feel as if the challenges, limitations, and barriers they face are personal, belonging to them alone. When, in fact, they affect us all. The issues are systemic, societal, and global - and we have the power to create change.
In Who Runs the World?, author Lois Quam emphasizes the need to unlock the immense potential of women and girls globally. Quam argues that empowering women is the long-needed step for justice and the progress needed to address the growing challenges we face today.
Throughout the book, she speaks to the barriers - personal and systemic - that block the humanity and talent of half the all the world's people - women.
Who Runs the World? sheds light on the path to change and the vital role women and girls play in addressing global challenges. Join the movement to unlock all the world's talent and contribute to a more equitable and thriving world.

Girls Can Save the World
In Who Runs the World? Pathfinder CEO, and former FORTUNE 50 executive and U.S. State Department official, Lois Quam offers personal reflections and a global perspective to demonstrate that unlocking the talent of the world’s women – half of all humanity – is the key for global progress in the 21st century. Quam recognizes that reproductive health care – and the ability to make these personal decisions - is central to women’s ability to reach their full potential in life.
This book presents the voices of Pathfinder leaders from Africa, South Asia, and the Middle East, showcasing efforts to support and advance women as we confront climate change, fragile health systems, and inequality.

Who Runs the World? is a call to action for everyone who has experienced for themselves what it means to choose whether and when to have children – and to do so safely.
