The World

When a woman in Delhi was raped and murdered in December, people in India were outraged. But did India’s protesters help galvanize the world? On Tuesday, February 26, The World hosted a Google+ Hangout designed to ask those working in the field to dive into the question: Is this truly a global movement for women’s safety?

Panel Moderator: Jeb Sharp is show producer for The World, responsible for the program’s overall sound and editorial content. She is also a longtime correspondent with a focus on human rights. Her reporting on rape as a weapon of war won a 2009 Dart Award for Excellence in Coverage of Trauma.
