What's Next: Harnessing the Momentum of #MeToo and #TimesUp

The momentum that has been garnered in movements from #MeToo to #TimesUp promises to usher in a new era of gender equality, though progress remains difficult to measure and discussion surrounding these issues continues to be complex. Advocates, policymakers, and thought leaders will discuss what happens after the hashtags. How is society addressing women's rights as human rights, and incorporating men within this dialogue? What can this social revolution learn from the past about delivering transformational and lasting impact? How are cross-sector leaders turning these online words into real life action?
