Hillary Rodham Clinton was the keynote speaker at the Women’s Empowerment Principles Annual Event at the United Nations. Clinton focused on the progress of women around the world and highlighted the work that still needs to be done. Her appearance came a day after unveiling the Clinton Foundation’s No Ceilings report which studies women’s progress around the world over the last twenty years. While this event was overshadowed Clinton’s press conference where she addressed the issue of using a personal email while at the State Department, it is a continuation of her work empowering women and girls around the world.
