A wonderfully insightful course, with many real-life case studies that reveal the ingrained and systemic abuse that so many women face. The course had the right balance of videos and reading material.

I was inspired and humbled by the presenters and stories in this class! I will recommend it to others.

Only critique might be that the test questions were mostly on a literal level. Given the brilliance of the teacher, I would have expected that to have have deeper.

This course helped me understand that my reality as woman can be different for other women so it is imperative not only to support other women to get an education, but to make others aware that more can be done for women's rights. Great Course!

Thank you very much for all information, books, articles, it was very useful for my career. One moment is that some data was out of the date, so i couldn't reach them out. For example, some linkages were too old and they did not work.
