“After reading Half the Sky, I was compelled to start an initiative that created real change for women and girls which also brought together women who wanted to make a difference in the world. I didn’t want to start another project based women’s organisation as there are many great organisations out there already. I wanted to start a project that was going to be an income source for women’s projects. That’s how the 100 Women initiative came about!” – Alicia Curtis
