International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for promoting gender equity. Let’s support this year’s theme #choosetochallenge.

Marked annually on March 8th, International Women’s Day (IWD) is one of the most important days of the year to:

• celebrate women’s achievements
• raise awareness about women’s equality
• lobby for accelerated gender parity
• fundraise for female-focused charities
