Prince Harry supports women empowerment. In a June 2013 Chime for Change speech, the Prince said: “When women are empowered, they immeasurably improve the lives of everyone around them–their families, their communities, and their countries. This is not just about women; we men need to recognize the part we play too. Real men treat women with dignity and give them the respect they deserve.”
