Annie Griffiths: How photography can show women's value | #skollwf 2016
Photographer Annie Griffiths speaks at the 2016 Skoll World Forum Opening Plenary. One of first women photographers for National Geographic, Annie shares beautiful pictures and says she has photographed women in 150 countries. “I am saddened that we underestimate these women,” she shared with the audience of mostly social entrepreneurs. “So I started to focus on underreported stories. If we want women to be valued, we have to show their value.”
The Skoll World Forum on Social Entrepreneurship is the premier international platform for advancing entrepreneurial approaches and solutions to the world’s most pressing problems. Our mission is to accelerate the impact of the world’s leading social entrepreneurs by uniting them with essential partners in a collaborative pursuit of learning, leverage and large-scale social change.
Each year, nearly 1,000 of the world’s most influential social entrepreneurs, key thought leaders and strategic partners gather at the University of Oxford’s Saïd Business School to exchange ideas, solutions and information.
Awesome speech ♥️
