The BBC has revealed its list of 100 inspirational and innovative women for 2017.
This year, the women on the list will be part of the 100 Women Challenge, tackling some of the biggest problems facing women around the world.
Coming together in four teams, the women will share their experiences and create innovative ways to tackle:
- The glass ceiling – #Teamlead
- Female illiteracy – #Teamread
- Street harassment – #Teamgo
- Sexism in sport – #Teamplay
You might notice something different this year; when the list was launched in September, there were still 40 spaces to be filled. As the season progresses, more women who have taken up the challenge in some way will be added to the list.
So far 30 new names have been included, bringing the total to 90. But there are still 10 places to fill.
