Happy Women's Day (March 8)!


It’s the day to celebrate
It’s the day to think
For all that the world have done
To the charming colour pink 
They blocked off her way
They chased her that day
They stormed all her life
Her blurred eyes did say 
An unarmed woman
With self arrested courage
They pulled down her confidence
With their harsh and sharp image
They found her so helpless
They made her to cry
They turned her life to hell
And forced her to die 
But let me say a word
A word full of hope
She made her way out
And learned how to cope 
A woman, a mother, a wife
With patience she strives
Caring, bearing and working
Still struggling with life…

International Women's Day (IWD) - March 8





Every person - women, men and non-binary people - can play a part in helping drive better outcomes for women. Through meaningful celebration and targeted bold action, we can all be responsive and responsible leaders in creating a more gender inclusive world. The World Economic Forum predicts the gender gap won't close entirely until 2186. This is too long to wait. So around the world, International Women's Day provides an important opportunity for ground breaking action that can truly drive greater change for women.


Use International Women's Day (IWD) on March 8 as an important opportunity to:
  • celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women because visibility and awareness help drive positive change for women
  • declare bold actions you'll take as an individual or organization to help progress the gender agenda because purposeful action can accelerate gender parity across the world
