YouTube invests in female creators 

YouTube announced this morning two programs aimed at funding and highlighting women’s voices across its video network. One sees the company forging a year-long partnership with U.N. to appoint top female creators as the first Change Ambassadors for the organization’s Sustainable Development Action campaign, where they will advocate for gender equality. The second is an investment in over 50 videos funded through YouTube’s new, global YouTube Spaces program, which put women both in front of and behind the camera.
