ENGLISH SPEECH | EMMA WATSON: HeForShe Impact (English Subtitles)

since the heishi launch in New York last September I think it would be fair to say that my colleagues and I have been stunned by the response the heishi conference was watched over 11 million times sparking 1.2 billion social media conversations culminating in the heishi hashtag becoming so popular that Twitter painted it on the walls of its headquarters And Men from almost every country in the world signed up to our commit M everyone from Desmond Tutu to Prince Harry to Hillary Clinton to Yoko Ono have issued their support or contacted us since September 20th everything from marathons being run merchandise being created 15-year-old boys writing to National newspapers deploring female discrimination young girls collecting hundreds of signatures it’s all happened in the last four months I couldn’t have dreamed it but it’s happened thank you so much thank you so much for watching and thank you so much for your support so what is impact 10 by 10 by 10 it’s about engaging governments businesses and universities and having them make concrete commitments to gender equality but I want to hear from the human beings that are behind these organizations I spoke about some of my story in September what are your stories girls who have been your mentors parents did you make sure you treated your children equally if so how have you done it husbands have you been supporting your female partner privately so that she can fulfill her dreams too young men have you spoken up in a conversation when a woman was casually degraded or dismissed how did the affect you how did this affect the woman you stepped up for businessmen have you mentored supported or engaged women in leadership positions writers have you challenged the language and imagery used to portray women in the media CEOs have you implemented the women’s empowerment principles in your own company what change have you seen are you someone that has persuading men to become heer she and collecting their signatures for our website how many have you got we want to know we want to hear from you one of the biggest pieces of feedback I’ve had since my speech is that men and women want to help but they aren’t sure how best to do it men say they’ve signed the petition what now the truth is the what now is down to you what your hey commitment will be is personal and there is no best way way everything is valid decide what your commitment is make it public and then please report back to us on your progress so that we can share your story we want to support guide and reinforce your efforts impact 10 x 10 x 10 is about concrete commitments to change the visibility of these commitments and the measurability of them two how has the campaign impacted me so far I’ve had my breath taken away when a fan told me that since watching my speech she has stopped herself being beaten up by her father I’ve been stunned by the amount of men in my life that have contacted me since my speech to tell me to keep going and that they want to make sure their daughters will still be alive to see a world where women have parity economically and politically while I would love to claim that uh this campaign and the results of it are a result of my incredible speech writing skills I know that it is not it is because the ground is fertile it is my belief that there is a greater understanding than ever that women need to be equal participants in our homes in our Societies in our governments and in our workplaces and they know that the world is being held back in every way because they are not women share this planet 5050 and they are under under represented their potential astonishingly untapped we are very excited to be launching 10 X 10 X 10 to bring hea shei into its next phase if you’re a he she and I’m assuming that you are because otherwise you’d be in somebody else’s press conference right now I’m here to ask you what is the impact you can have how how what where when and with whom we want to help we want to know and we want to hear from you thank you very much um thank you arena for such a generous introduction and on behalf of the entire heishi team I also want to thank UNESCO for all of its support uh it’s meant a lot to us thank you all for being here for this important moment these men from all over the world have decided to make gender equality a priority in their lives and in their universities thank you for making this commitment I graduated from University four years ago I had always dreamed of going and I know how fortunate I am to have had the opportunity to do so Brown became my home my community and I took the ideas and the experiences I had there into all of my social interactions into my workplace into my politics into all aspects of my life I know that my University experience shaped who I am and of course it does for many people but what if our experience of University shows us that women don’t belong in leadership what if it shows us that yes women can study but they shouldn’t lead a seminar what if as still in many places around the world it tells us that women don’t belong there at all what if as is the case in far too many univers ities we are given the message that sexual violence isn’t actually a form of violence but we know that if you change students experiences so they have different expectations of the world around them expectations of equality Society will change as we leave home for the first time to study at the places that we have worked so hard to get we must not see or experience double standards we need to see equal respect leadership and pay the university experience must tell women that their brain power is valued and not just that but that they belong within the leadership of the University itself and so importantly right now the experience must make it clear that the safety of women minority minorities and anyone who may be vulnerable is a right and not a privilege a right that will be respected by a community that believes and supports survivors and that recognizes that when one person’s safety is violated everyone feels their own safety is violated a university should be a place of Refuge that takes action against all forms of violence that’s why we believe that students should leave University believing in striving for and expecting societies of true equality societies of true equality in every sense and that universities have the power to be a vital Catalyst for that change our 10 impact Champions have made this commitment and with their work we know they will inspire students and other universities and schools across the world to do better I’m delighted to introduce this report on their progress and I’m eager to hear what’s next thank you so much visit our site englishspeech chanel.com for exclusive

  1. The session was truly remarkable 🎉🎉🎉 I really enjoyed her accent as well as I support her thoughts 💭 about the gender equality in the universe ❤

  2. I really appreciate her efforts for gender equality, but I am sorry to say, as long as women live in the definitions given by men for equality, freedom and empowerment, and realize that they are running in the maze designed by men to control women, all these campaigns will be just a great PR.

  3. Gender equality? That stup1d ideology continuously attacking to traditional family. This is a struggle against Family and I don't agree with that 🙄🙄
