AFRICAN WOMEN.

 Award-winning photojournalist Stephan Gladieu traveled through Africa in 2015 documenting the lives of women. His images were unveiled on Feb. 23, 2016, at the Musée du quai Branly in Paris, during the Le Monde Afrique conference on Women: The Future of Africa. The event, co-sponsored by the World Bank, strived to raise public awareness on gender inequality and draw attention to successful initiatives that have been proven to work to close gender gaps. This slideshow is narrated by World Bank writer Donna Barne, who accompanied Gladieu on several photo shoots.

Shockwaves are reverberating around Spanish and world football in the wake of a kiss during the medal awards ceremony at the Women's World Cup. Spanish football federation president Luis Rubiales shocked global television audiences when he grabbed Spanish forward Jenni Hermoso's head and firmly kissed her on the lips. Rubiales has refused to resign, despite many calls for him to do so. Ms Hermoso said: "I believe no person, in any work, sport or social setting should be a victim of this type of non-consensual behaviour.
