International Women’s Day (March 8) is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity. #IWD2018 #PressForProgress #menstruationmatters #pathtowomanhood
International Women’s Day is powered by the collective efforts of all
Collective action and shared ownership for driving gender parity is what makes International Women’s Day successful. Gloria Steinem, world-renowned feminist, journalist and activist once explained “The story of women’s struggle for equality belongs to no single feminist nor to any one organization but to the collective efforts of all who care about human rights.” So make International Women’s Day your day and do what you can to truly make a positive difference for women.
This year our International Women’s Day was celebrated with partnerships from Simama Dada Initiative and Panties with Purpose, where together we reached 700 girls with panty and pad distribution in Busia County.
Schools reached:St James Kwangamor, St John Akobwait, St Peter Kotur Sec, Dongen Apokor Sec , St Augustine Kamolo Sec
