The call-to-arms documentary "A Powerful Noise" takes viewers into the lives of three extraordinary women: a girls' education crusader in Mali; an HIV-positive widow in Vietnam; and a peacemaking war survivor from Bosnia. The ensuing panel discussion will turn theatres into town hall meetings on the problems — and solutions — facing millions of other women and girls in the world's poorest countries.

Event panelists include Madeleine K. Albright, former U.S. Secretary of State and principal, The Albright Group LLC; Christy Turlington Burns, CARE advocate for maternal health and contributing editor for Marie Claire magazine; Dr. Helene Gayle, CARE president and CEO; Nicholas Kristof, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, New York Times columnist and acclaimed author; and Natalie Portman, actress and activist.

In most poor countries, women and girls are disproportionately affected by poverty. They still often lack basic rights, access to education, health services and opportunities to earn their own income. However, studies show that when a girl in the developing world receives seven or more years of education, she marries four years later and has 2.2 fewer children. Additionally, when women gain opportunities to earn income they reinvest, on average, 90 percent of it into their families.
