Equality for Women is Progress for All Today we join the people of the world in celebration of the progress made for women’s rights, women’s empowerment and gender equality. We also acknowledge that progress has been slow, uneven and in some cases women and girls face new and more complex challenges. International Womens Day is therefore also a day to recommit ourselves to working harder for gender equality, together as women, men, youth and leaders of nations, communities, religion and commerce. If we act decisively, with the knowledge that empowering women and girls and supporting their full participation can help solve the greatest challenges of the 21st century, we will find lasting solutions to many of the problems we face in our world. Major challenges such as poverty, inequality, violence against women and girls, and insecurity will be addressed substantially. Women spend the majority of their income on the well-being of their children and family. Raising women’s labour force participation increases economic growth. By ending womens poverty, we will sustainably and significantly reduce extreme poverty worldwide. Happy womens day luv u mama Marry Meela, luv u mchumba... All girls/women Nawaheshimu sana na mungu awabariki!
