<h3 class="post-title subpt">To mark International Women’s Day 2014, Jimmy Carter, Hina Jilani and Desmond Tutu will answer questions in The Elders’ first ever live Twitter chat.</h3><div class="quoteblock"><div class="quotetext"></div></div><p><img src="http://www.theelders.org/images/IWD-2014_v2.jpg&quot; alt="banner" width="620" height="170"></p>
<p>We have seen huge progress towards gender equality in the Elders’ lifetimes; yet there is no country where women and men enjoy equal rights. What’s holding us back? How can religion – so often misused to oppress girls and women – become a force for positive change? And what can men and women around the world do to advance women’s equality?</p>
<p>Join Jimmy Carter, Hina Jilani and Desmond Tutu – three Elders on three different continents – for our first ever live Twitter Q&amp;A.</p>
<p>Tweet your questions <strong><a href="https://twitter.com/TheElders">@TheElders</a></strong&gt; now using <strong><a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%23askElders&amp;src=hash&amp;f=realtime">…; – and visit <strong><a href="https://twitter.com/TheElders">our Twitter page</a></strong> from&nbsp;<strong>2-2.30pm GMT, Thursday 6 March</strong> for the live event!</p>
