| Summary: | Over the past few decades, life for many women across the globe has changed beyond all recognition. This fascinating series explores how, from the highest echelons of society, to the lowest rungs of the global ladder, a quiet revolution has been taking place. Women today have the power of self-determination; the autonomy to choose their own life paths and identities, rather than those enforced on them. And while there is still oppression and repression from West to East, females the world over are grasping opportunities denied to those who went before them. There has never been a better time to be born a woman thanks to recent progress on equal rights. In the final part of Her Story: The Female Revolution - we focus on the workplace and meet the women from Saudi Arabia to Brazil who are defying expectations and breaking through in the most unexpected places. |
