Even though women continue to contribute socially, economically, culturally and politically there is still a large gap between men and women.
This year the International Womens Day is about everyone, man or woman, can pledge to take a concrete step to help achieve equality more quickly. Whether it is through helping women and girls achieve their ambitions, to call for gender-balance leadership, or working towards more respecting and valuing difference, and to root out workplace bias.
