Photojournalist Paola Gianturco documents how grandmothers are changing the world in
her new book, Grandmother Power: A Global Phenomenon

 

Grandmother Power tells the stories of 120 activist grandmothers, members of 17 groups in 15 countries on 5 continents…My dream is that this book will inspire grand people to use their wisdom, experience, energy, and power on behalf of grandchildren everywhere, all of whom deserve to live in a better world.
–Paola Gianturco
