Growing up in rural Wisconsin, Jensine Larsen scoured news publications for the voices of women teachers. When she couldn’t find them, at 19 she took off for the Amazon, where she gathered stories and shared them back home through outlets such as NPR and Air America. Larsen brims with excitement about the global rise of women’s leadership and its relationship to the communications revolution that she catalyzes and supports through World Pulse, an online media platform she designed to turn up the volume on women’s stories across the globe. This speech was given at the 2009 Bioneers Annual Conference and is part of the Everywoman's Leadership Collection, Vol. 1. Since 1990, Bioneers has acted as a fertile hub of social and scientific innovators with practical and visionary solutions for the world's most pressing environmental and social challenges. To experience talks like this, please join us at the Bioneers National Conference each October, and regional Bioneers Resilient Community Network gatherings held nationwide throughout the year.
