Time Magazine unveils New Project “Firsts: Women Who Are Changing the World”

#Nigeria

 

See the full list of women featured in the project below.
Talking about the project, editor-in-chief of Time Nancy Gibbs says:

Our goal with this extraordinary project…is for every woman and girl to find someone who moves them, to find someone whose presence in the highest reaches of success says to them that it is safe to climb, come on up, the view is spectacular. They were candid about their challenges, aware of their responsibilities, eager to tell the stories that will surprise and inspire. We hope everyone, at every life stage, will encounter an insight here that will open a door to new ambitions

12 of the women were featured on the cover of the magazine’s latest issue and they are – Hillary Rodham Clinton, Ellen DeGeneres, Oprah Winfrey, Selena Gomez, Ava DuVernay, Sylvia Earle, Nikki Haley, Ilhan Omar, Lori Robinson, Katharine Jefferts Schori, Mo’ne Davis, and Janet Yel. Amazingly, these 12 women were photographed for the cover  by Brazilian photographer Luisa Dörr with her iPhone.
