Happy International Women’s Day! Here’s to all the women that put themselves on the line and have broken silence around rape culture and violence against women. I am so grateful for your strong voices.⁣ ⁣ In my continuing search for answers, I feel very grateful to have encountered Sex & World Peace by Valerie M. Hudson, Bonnie Ballif-Spanvill, Mary Caprioli and Chad F. Emmett and I’m excited to share it with you on International Women’s Day.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ The book reveals that so much in the state of our world: security, prosperity, development, democracy, justice and world peace is clearly dependent on and stems from how we treat women and girls. With this highly readable and extensively researched textbook, the authors encourage a holistic view when it comes to national and international relations – the whole tree, not just the branches, but the roots. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ With practical chapters on achieving positive change, the book also offers us personal and societal calls to action while emphasizing that states who have the most power to make change must centralize the concerns of women where security, legal reform and justice is at stake and this includes equality in the decision-making process. Sex & World Peace shows us how gender inequality is a form of violence that impacts everything from population growth to economies to regime type. For me, this book illuminates how we got where we are today, and along with it, a way forward.⁣ ⁣☮️??✨❤️⁣ ⁣ #sexandworldpeace #internationalwomensday @columbiauniversitypress @womanstatsproject #oursharedshelf

眾所周知Emma Watson 出了名的書迷，也喜歡鼓勵周圍的人看書，並在#oursharedshelf 分享自己的閱讀清單。有時候還會出沒倫敦大街小巷、穿梭地鐵站人流之處放置書籍，讓有緣人能夠免費獲取閱讀，成為隔空交流書籍的快閃活動。曾任命為聯合國婦女親善大使的她，推動 HeForShe 性別平等運動更是不遺餘力，最近在國際婦女節更分享作家 Valerie Hudson 的新書《Sex and World Peace》。這本書解釋了當今世界安全、繁榮、發展、民主、正義都與如何對待婦女、女童有着息息相關的影響，必須要透過法律、司法的改革才能解決根源的問題。
