International Women’s Day is a day to celebrate women’s achievements and to raise awareness of gender inequality.
This year International Women’s Day is being held on March 8th.
The theme for this year is ‘Choose To Challenge’.
A challenged world is an alert world. Individually, we’re all responsible for our own thoughts and actions – all day, every day.
We can all choose to challenge and call out gender bias and inequality. We can all choose to seek out and celebrate women’s achievements. Collectively, we can all help create an inclusive world.
From challenge comes change, so let’s all choose to challenge.
