Emma Watson is celebrating International Women's Day with the world this year.

The actress and United Nations Women's Goodwill Ambassador announced on Monday that she, along with gender-equality organization HeforShe will conduct a live Q&A in London on Sunday, March 8 at 1 p.m. ET.

The event, which will be live-streamed on Facebook, will be held in conjunction with International Women's Day; its topic of discussion will be gender equality. Watson will answer questions that include the hashtag #HeForShe on Facebook.

Several lucky people will be able to attend the event in-person; to be selected, they needed to provide details of what they have done to advance gender equality. Those chosen will be announced by Friday, March 6.

In September, Watson introduced the HeForShe campaign during a moving speech for the United Nations.
