HeForShe
Lang's commitment to the UN global solidarity movement for gender equality
Since launching in September 2014 at the United Nations, HeForShe has been the subject of more than 2 billion conversations on social media, with off-line activities reaching every corner of the globe. The Lang School is proud to be part of that conversation.
When it comes to the HeForShe movement on campus, Lang business students are not standing on the sidelines - they are actively working together to build awareness and catalyze change to create a more equitable future for everyone. Our faculty, staff and students are committed to the HeForShe movement by breaking gender stereotypes and improving gender equity through several HeForShe initiatives.

About the HeForShe Movement
The United Nation’s (UN) HeForShe movement is an invitation for men and people of all genders to stand in solidarity with women to create a bold, visible and united force for gender equality. Since HeForShe launched in September 2014 at the United Nations, millions of men around the world, including Heads of State, CEOs, and global luminaries from all walks of life, have committed to gender equality.
