This is a Special Month
For over a century, International Women's Day has been commemorating females of yesterday and today who demonstrate ingenuity and resilience on the global stage. This special occasion sparks creative event ideas to join people together in appreciation for all that women have achieved- past, present, and future! Let us honor their struggles by recognizing the obstacles many face through education about pertinent issues affecting them around the globe.
International Women's Day
This year, International Women's Day (March 8, 2023) spotlights the concept of EmbraceEquity. This means that women should be given what they need to thrive in all aspects of life such as social, economic, cultural and political spheres. Let us come together to ensure equity and success for all. One example of embracing equity would be women earning the same wages as men for the same work. In 2020, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that women earned just 82% of what men did in equivalent full-time roles. Ultimately, when we embrace equity, we achieve equality and create an inclusive world.
Women Need Help Women
There are a variety of reasons why male-dominated societies exist, ranging from physical differences to socio-cultural norms. Physical differences between men and women can be seen in size, strength and body composition, which can provide an advantage in certain tasks such as manual labour. Socio-cultural norms have been established over time that tends to favour males.
There must be some triggers to help build men-women equality. Education, awareness and advocacy can all help to reduce gender disparities in society by providing women with equal access to economic, social and political opportunities. Additionally, laws that promote impartial treatment of men and women in the workplace can also have a positive impact on gender equality.
One way that this can be done is through offering mentorship programs or other initiatives that help provide female-identifying individuals with opportunities to develop their skills and reach their professional goals. Additionally, female allies can use their platform and influence to raise awareness about gender issues and advocate for change in policy, practice and social attitudes. Finally, every woman can play an important role in challenging any instances of gender-based discrimination that they may observe at work or elsewhere in society.

Our goal is to recognize the remarkable accomplishments of women and facilitate their entrepreneurship without any restrictions. We may not have vast influence, but we are doing our best to Embrace Equity!
Now, we call for all women's business stories, especially small business, to be shared here.
