What Helps or Hinders Women’s Equality?

The International Women’s Day is observed on the 8th of March every year. This global observance is a way to celebrate women’s achievements and a call to attention to all the work still left to be done on a global scale. The theme for 2020 ‘I am Generational Equality: Realizing Women’s Rights’, is to mobilise global action to achieve gender equality and human rights for all women and children.
