Hi, I'm Ali Plum.

I'm here to talk to Emma about HeForShe and the launch of the new HeForShe website.

For those who don't know, what is HeForShe?

HeForShe is a solidarity movement for gender equality, like in a nutshell.

Big question here.

Yeah.

What is HeForShe trying to achieve?

We're trying to achieve gender equality,

but I think the really cool thing about HeForShe is that we aren't just,

you know, an education or an awareness campaign.

It's wonderful that people are talking about it and it's great that so many people are talking about it.

But we're more than just an awareness campaign.

We are mission focused.

We're really trying to collect,

And that's really our main focus.

Where are we currently in the world with a state of gender equality?

Well it's really interesting because there's this perceived notion that gender inequality was sort of a thing of the past,

that we've sort of figured that one out

and you know we're kind of where we need to be

but when you start to look even just a little bit deeper beneath the surface you start to realise

that actually we've got quite a long way to go.

Why is it important to involve men like myself with this project?

I think there's this perception that feminism or gender equality or like women's issues are to be talked about by women,

that it's for women, and you know,

women are like this separate thing,

but of course women are human beings and these are human rights that we're talking about.

So we kind of need everyone to be part of the conversation

and that was really what He For She is about

and how He For She was born was that we wanted to make sure that the conversation was

inclusive and also we were talking to people that didn't agree with us and that was actually really important.

We want to create change and

so the conversation needs to be opened up to groups

that perhaps traditionally hadn't been associated with engaging with feminism or gender equality.

Could you give me some examples of stories from men who have become involved with HeForShe?

I was on the university tour for HeForShe and there was a young man who we asked,

you know, like, what would gender equality mean for you?

And he was like, well,

it would mean that I could drink my fizzy cider without my mates taking the piss out of me.

I was like, well, this doesn't sound like a very compelling,

compelling reason to achieve gender equality in the world.

But actually, he sort of started to elaborate more.

And he was just saying that he found the pressure

to fit this male mould and to conform to this kind of lad culture of like this very heavy binge drinking,

actually really kind of soul destroying.

And that he was often really ashamed of how he acted

when he was on these huge like binge drinking things with his mates

and how he treated girls specifically when he was like that.

And the dude just wanted to drink fizzy cider.

You know what I'm saying?

And it was just really sweet, actually.

And I just found that something so simple.

But guys just feel this incredible pressure to be...

that in order to be a man,

there are all of these ideas that they really have to live up to and conform to.

And it's actually a bit suffocating.

We're here to specifically discuss the he4she.org website.

Yes.

Why is that so important?

Well, it's important because we want to be the first and largest crowdsourcing tool for solutions to gender equality.

And the reason that is exciting is because we've had people sign up to The Commitment.

And I've had lots of wonderful emails from men saying,

all right, I'm on board.

I get it.

I'm into it.

you know, great, but like,

what do you want me to do?

What do you actually want me to do about this now?

I'm like, so this has been great,

and we've received hundreds of emails like this,

and so we've set up this website.

But what's been really interesting is that we haven't wanted to prescribe to anyone how best within their specific country,

town, school, community, whatever the best way to enact this change is.

And actually when people have come up with their own solutions organically,

there's been some amazing things that have happened.

So a man in Zimbabwe started a husband's school for Hifashi, which was incredible.

We've had one of our Hifashi champions,

the president of Malawi, just annulled 300 child bride marriages and sent the girls back to school,

which was unbelievable.

We've had the University of Waterloo decided that they were going to give scholarships for girls for engineering specifically,

which has been amazing.

So we've kind of, we've realized that like you guys have the solutions

and we just need to create the platform through which we can inspire you.

So we've created this website and we think it's pretty awesome.

It's got all of these new features.

It's got a, it's called an impact map.

And what it does is it shows you a map of the world.

and then if you click on your country it'll show you the issue

which is which you think

or you voted is the most important with regards to gender equality

so it might be political representation it might be education it

might be health it might be identity you know there's all of these different ones

that you can sort of like click on and you can vote

and what's great is that we're going to be able to collect

that data and we're gonna be able to take that to governments,

to companies, businesses, universities, individuals and say this is the issue

that the people of your country think is the one

which most needs to be worked on and changed and when we can use that to leverage resources,

funds you know we can really we can really push behind whatever

100

that is and the coolest thing is that it's kind of essentially voted for by the public.

101

It's essentially the reason I'm the most excited about the website is

102

because it's sort of like a manifestation of an online grassroots movement in

103

that it's really driven by people and their involvement with it.

104

What are your plans for the future of the website?

105

Where next?

106

I gave the speech last September about he for she

107

and about what it was about and I talked about how gender wasn't a binary

108

so it wasn't kind of men over here in this corner and women over here in this corner.

109

I was trying to express this idea that gender works on this spectrum

110

and that people fall in all sorts of different places on the spectrum.

111

And then we realised that the website didn't really reflect that and so HeForShe actually changed it which is pretty cool.

112

So today I get to be the first woman who can sign up to the HeForShe commitment which is awesome.

113

The other thing that we did is made it so

114

that you didn't have to sign the website as a man or a woman.

115

You could actually choose how you identified yourself,

116

what pronoun you wanted to use.

117

So whether you're trans, non-gender conforming,

118

whatever you want to call yourself,

119

you can register and identify yourself in that way.

120

We wanted to make sure that the website was really inclusive and really empowering for the people that were taking the commitment.

121

And that they could identify themselves as they wanted.

122

So that's really exciting.

123

So the Secretary General is the first man to sign up.

124

I'm going to be the first woman.

125

And we hope that lots and lots and lots of people will continue to sign up,

126

which is awesome.

127

The other cool thing that we're measuring is not just the number of people taking the commitment,

128

but the number of gender equality actions.

129

So people actually doing something for he for she,

130

for gender equality, whether that be a marathon being run for he for she,

131

or whether it be a husband's school that gets started in Zimbabwe,

132

or whatever the action is,

133

we want to measure it,

134

we want to know that it's important to us,

135

we want to share the story of that happening.

136

and we want that visual on the website so that's really exciting too.

137

In other words, if you're watching this and you haven't already signed up, sign up.

138

Yes, if you're watching this and you haven't signed up yet,

139

whoever you are, wherever you are, please, please do.

140

It's a really fun and interesting website and I think it's going to turn into what we hope is an amazing resource,

141

toolkit, solutions kit that will make your commitment to these ideas actionable.

142

And we want to empower you to support and we need and we want that support.

143

Could you tell me a bit more about how the website works?

144

Yes, so I don't know anything about websites,

145

so it was all a little bit confusing for me at first.

146

But the website's been designed so that it's sort of mobile friendly

147

and iPad friendly and it sort of works in all these different mediums.

148

So it's got what I'm told in the tech world is called a hamburger in the top left hand corner,

149

which is like these three lines which functions as your navigation

150

which means that you can use it on your mobile

151

and it sort of takes you to these three sort of key you know ideas

152

or principles of the website which is that your voice matters

153

and and your actions make it real

154

and your stories are really important to us too so the website is kind of collecting this data archiving these stories,

155

collecting all of these solutions and tools and ideas about how we can make gender equality a reality and actionable.

156

And yeah, it's kind of,

157

it's very simple and clean and hopefully easy to use.

158

That's the idea.

159

So you're watching this on your mobile?

160

Yeah.

161

You could go and sign up right now.

162

Yeah.

163

So that's, yeah, that's the idea is that you can access it on your mobile.

164

super easy to use on your phone.

165

Yeah, you could just sign up right now.

166

You could just now, you could just pause this video and be like,

167

I know what I'm gonna do.

168

I'm gonna go and sign the HeForShe commitment.

169

This pin here, as you can see.

170

Tell me about the logo for HeForShe.

171

So the HeForShe logo is actually kind of an amalgamation of the symbol for women and the symbol for men.

172

We really wanted a symbol or a logo that kind of encapsulated the idea of these two genders coming together in solidarity.

173

And so it's a combined symbol.

174

And is there anywhere that other people who aren't already lucky enough to have a pin?

175

Like yourself?

176

Like myself, could get their own?

177

Yes, so they've actually been sold out,

178

which is wonderful, but there are more that are coming next week,

179

there are more of the pins and the bans and they're on the website too.

180

Who are the big supporters you have for the website?

181

When you log onto the website,

182

what you'll see first of all is you'll see these kind portraits of women and men and they've been paired up,

183

so there's only half a face.

184

And so the idea behind that was that,

185

you know, we are, the idea that we are one,

186

that what connects us is actually more significant than what divides us.

187

We kind of hope that these portraits will build

188

and we're also hoping

189

that we can tell the stories of all of the different faces on the website

190

and why they care about gender equality and why it's important to them.

191

So we have NATO is one of our he for she champions, pretty amazing.

192

The whole of the European Commission,

193

the UN Secretary General, President Obama,

194

Prince Harry has signed up.

195

We've had some pretty amazing support really.

196

It's really been amazing.

197

Finally, what is next for you, Emma? be continuing the he for she university tour hopefully

198

and uh we we've only done it in europe so far

199

but we hope that it's going to spread spread everywhere so

200

that will be great i'm going to be at davos next

201

week at the world economic forum with our 10 he for she impact champions

202

who are going to release some very interesting data on on gender parity within their own companies

203

and the representation of women within their institutions which will be amazing.

204

So yeah, lots happening and then today obviously focusing on the website launch.

205

Tell me about your book club,

206

I hear you have one.

207

I do have a book club.

208

It's called Our Shared Shelf and it's on Goodreads and the idea is that we pick a new book every month.

209

This month's book is My Life on the Road by Gloria Steinem,

210

which is her new memoir.

211

I'm about two-thirds of the way through, I would say, now.

212

And it's been amazing.

213

There's tons and tons and tons of discussion topics.

214

I think we have 80,000 members now, which is unbelievable.

215

It's really fun, and I'm going to be trying to organize conversations with the authors

216

or other thinkers on the topic to discuss with readers, too.

217

So it's a really cool, fun project.

218

My shared shelf.

219

Our shared shelf.

220

Because it's not mine.

221

It's ours.

222

Do you see?

223

She'd have worked that one out, shouldn't I?

224

Do you see that?

225

It's ours.

226

It's everybody's.

227

Thank you so much for talking to me, Emma.

228

Thank you for talking to me.

229

I now know a lot more than I used to.

230

Yay!

231

Genuinely.

232

That's great.

233

And I got a pin.

234

And you got a he-for-she band.

235

This is the wrong way around.

236

You're going to take them off when you leave the room, aren't you?

237

He's upside down.

238

Heaps you.

239

I should have put it the wrong way around.
