Onaran releases his own documentary

Tijen Onaran wants to show what the path to more diversity could look like. Now the entrepreneur has filmed a documentary for Amazon Prime.

The name says it all: "Yes she can - women change the world" wants to show that equal rights for women and men are not yet a reality in Germany, but that women themselves can rewrite the rules. The initiator is entrepreneur and bestselling author Tijen Onaran. She campaigns with her company Global Digital Women for more diversity in the working world in: "Germany has long ceased to have a problem with knowledge, it simply lacks the implementation," writes the company to present the documentary.

Last year, Onaran noticed that there was no documentation on gender diversity in Germany. She pitched the idea to Amazon with her team from Global Digital Women and received an acceptance. The documentary has now been available on Amazon Prime for a few days. "I never thought we would produce our own documentary too and we did it!", Onaran wrote on Instagram.

In the documentary, the entrepreneur aims to provide facts and figures, complete with personal stories. She is joined by Wiebke Ankersen, executive director of the AllBright Foundation, Anna-Lena von Hodenberg of HateAid, Linda Nübling, founder of Gurlz with Curlz and Janina Mütze, founder of Civey, among others. The goal of the documentary is to "discuss to change" according to Onaran on LinkedIn.
