We arrived in Seattle yesterday morning to clear skies and sunshine, leaving rainy New York City behind (didn’t expect that!). We headed straight to the Gates foundation where I was invited by Dr. Gary Darmstadt, Director of the Family Health Division to screen a clip of No Woman, No Cry and give a brief talk during a town hall about social and behavioral change. It was my first visit to the foundation and an exciting opportunity for me to share my observations about these particular barriers through my experience making the film. It was such a thrill to finally visit the Gates Foundation after admiring their work for so long.
