International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating and celebrating women’s equality. The IWD 2020 campaign theme is drawn from a notion of ‘Collective Individualism.’ Equality is not a women’s issue -- it’s a business issue.
