International Women’s Day
Women impact the world at all levels – as farmers, workers, consumers, household managers, activists, leaders, and entrepreneurs. They have been making significant contributions in several fields such as agricultural labor force, health care, entertainment, and the cosmetics industry. Women are responsible for half of the world’s food production and improving women’s health leads to better well-being for entire families, especially children. In governance, women are more likely to ratify international environmental treaties and have inclusive climate policies. “International Women’s Day” is an opportunity to rejoice in the progress made towards achieving gender equality and women’s empowerment, but also to critically reflect on those accomplishments and strive for greater momentum. This day commemorates the beauty, diversity, and achievements of women
