The Women’s Atlas by Joni Seager is a collection of charts and maps depicting statistics about women from health to government involvement, work to education and so much more! .

It was so fascinating to learn more about women around the world. It was obvious to see where improvements have been made and where we need to see more. The graphics were really cool and easy to read.

I found it really interesting how many countries the West tends to view as ‘backwards’ are actually further ahead in many areas concerning women then we in the West are. I know personally, I found it absolutely ridiculous that Canada has no national legislation on making sure that a percentage of our government is filled by women but several countries most would consider ‘behind’ have actual legislation.
