International Women’s Day is tomorrow, Wednesday 8th March. The day is an opportunity to honour women’s achievements, raise awareness for gender equality and celebrate those who are pushing the boundaries for women’s rights and fighting gender bias.
Each International Women’s Day has a theme, and this year’s is ‘DigitALL: Innovation and technology for gender equality,’ where women who are leading digital education to empower young girls and women will be particularly celebrated.
