In recent years, with the rapid improvement of the national economic level, China’s economy has entered a new stage, and the social form is gradually shifting from a manufacturing-driven model to a service-driven model. Women’s coordination, empathy, and communication skills are in line with the development of society, driving the society to gradually move towards“Her Time”.

Great creations from women are active in all walks of society, whether in family or career. Women firmly hold up half the sky and have achieved amazing results. A global“pink wave” once swept the world, revealing female leaders that are as numerous as the stars. Their abilities are admirable, and their deeds inspire later generations to move forward and radiate the brilliance of women!

The background of“Her Time” urges the emergence of“Her Economy”.“Her Economy” is one of the 171 newly coined Chinese words announced by the Ministry of Education in August 2007. It is a unique economic circle and phenomenon formed around women’s finance and consumption with the improvement of their economic and social status. Is“Her Economy” really equivalent to“Her Time”? We believe that you will find the answer in the dialogue!

Located in the Suiyuan campus of Nanjing Normal University, Ginling College is a cluster of flowers blooming from the dust of history, exuding a classical atmosphere with a leisurely fragrance.

With the century-old motto of“A virtuous and loving life, a path of learning and practice”, as China’s first undergraduate women’s college, since its establishment in 1915, Ginling College has nurtured numerous“Her Role Model” who have had a significant impact on society. They are known as the“999 roses”, distributed all over the world, including female generals, scientists, educators, artists, social activists, and more.

In which fields do women have more outstanding achievements? What kind of experiences and stories do outstanding women have? Professor Zhao Yuan will introduce us to the human map of outstanding women and lead us to explore the shining“Her Role Model”!

We admire the power of women in today’s society, and we seek inspiring women examples. Therefore, Esther Hall has invited Professor Zhao Yuan, former dean of Ginling College, to conduct a dialogue program together to explore the power of“Her Role Model” and guide“her growth” in“Her Time”.

In order to promote interaction and communication among participants, this event will be conducted online and offline at the same time. Students who attend the live broadcast in person can have better exchanges of ideas, raise questions and promote understanding.
