Join our Facebook Live event with Emma Watson this Sunday 8 March

British actor and UN Women Global Goodwill Ambassador Emma Watson will take part in a special Facebook Live event in London as part of International Women’s Day on Sunday, 8 March, at 5 p.m. GMT (1 p.m. EST).

The event will include 120 young fans who will have a chance to ask questions and have an intimate conversation with Emma Watson about gender equality and UN Women’s HeForShe campaign, a global solidarity movement to engage men and boys in the struggle.

Audience members were selected after taking part in a contest, in which youth in London were invited to submit a personal story of impact and actions they have taken to advance gender equality, in 500 words or less, with one to two photos or a short video. UN Women then selected the 120 individuals to become audience members for this special event.

Fans around the world can watch the Livestream of this event on Facebook, and on this page.
