"Women perform 66 percent of the world's work and produce 50 per-
cent of the food,
yet earn only 10 percent of the income and own
1 percent of the property. Whether the issue is improving educa-
tion in the developing world, or fighting global climate change,
or addressing nearly any other challenge
we face, empowering
women is a critical part of the equation...."
-- Former President
Bill Clinton, commenting on the annnual
