GLIMPSES
INTO THE SPIRIT OF GENDER EQUALITY
In 1995, at a global conference concerning the rights of women, governments from around the world agreed on a comprehensive plan to achieve global gender equality, known as the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action.
25 years later, this film offers glimpses into advances made towards gender equality in Baha’i communities around the world. As women are afforded their equal place in society and as women and men increasingly join together to solve the world’s greatest challenges, humanity’s future prospects grow brighter.
