The film Girl Rising journeys around the globe to witness the strength of the human spirit and the power of education to change the world. After a viewing of the film we hosted a discussion panel with Ruth Messinger, President of the American Jewish World Service, Nahid Angha, Ph.D., a Sufi scholar, women's rights activist, and accomplished author, and Manisha Gupte co-founder of MASUM, an Indian women’s organization working to promote the rights of women and girls.
