Today, Friday, March 8, 2024, is International Women's Day - a time to recognize and celebrate women’s and girl’s social, economic, cultural and political achievements.

The 2024 theme is Invest in Women: Accelerate Progress.

The day is a reminder that gender equality is one of the most effective ways to build healthier, more prosperous and more inclusive communities.

It’s time to act – because women’s success is everyone’s success.
