“The most important thing one woman can do for another is expand her sense of actual possibilities.” ― Adrienne Rich
The theme for 2021’s International Women’s Day is choose to challenge and it encourages us all to “[c]elebrate women’s achievement. Raise awareness against bias. Take action for equality.” By challenging the status quo we can make the lives of women across the globe happier, more fair, and better equipped to fulfill their dreams. This week share resources and a bit of history on International Women’s Day.
