Meet 100 of the most powerful and interesting women to lead nations and peoples from around the world. They come from all walks of life as teachers, doctors, lawyers, scientists, biologists, police officers, soccer players and revolutionaries. Many have overcome adversity and all are trailblazers. Meet Bidhya Bhandari who brought in the Maoist guerillas into the Nepalese government ending a 50 year insurgency. Meet Natasa Micic who organized protests against the Serbian dictator from her car painted ’Thelma and Louise’ as she laughingly ushered in Democracy as a temporary President. Meet Ameenah Gurib-Fakim, who’s TED X Lecture on the healing properties of Mauritius’ flora and fauna catapulted her famously into the Presidency. Meet all 100 recent women leaders who have lead nations and let them inspire you.
