Although International Women’s Day is an amazing opportunity for us to celebrate the incredible achievements of individuals globally, it is important to note that women should be celebrated every single day of the year. And, while incredible strides have already been made towards equality, there is without a doubt still a significant degree more to be done.
For example, companies are more than willing to use the day as a marketing opportunity, with Twitter's gender pay gap bot account replying withhow much less that company pay their women compared to men.
Especially with 97% of women between the ages of 18-24 being sexually harrased in Britain, it's ovbious that more needs to be done to support women and guarantee their saftey.
Celebrating International Women’s Day gives us a chance to shine a spotlight on not only how far we’ve come but how much further there is to go.
