On this International Women’s Day, we honor the achievements, resilience, and strength of women and girls around the world. This year’s theme” Rights, Equality, and Empowerment for All” reminds us that progress is only possible when every woman and girl has the freedom, opportunities, and support to thrive. International Women’s Day is more than a celebration it’s a call to action for gender equality, empowerment, and a future where every woman and girl has the opportunity to thrive.
Equality for All: Why It Matters
Women’s rights are human rights. Yet, despite significant advancements, many women still face barriers to education, economic independence, leadership roles, and personal safety. Gender equality isn’t just a women’s issue it’s a human rights issue. By advocating for equal opportunities and breaking barriers, we can create a world where everyone regardless of gender can reach their full potential. When women and girls are empowered, societies flourish, economies grow, and future generations benefit.

This is a great initiative that provokes human intuitive capacities to figure how we can correspondingly be inclusive and serve women and girl child. Thank you, CORD Ghana for such a tremendous impact you are pouring in our northern communities.
This is great! and I feel proud of this approach to women’s empowerment and involvement as a woman.
I know is women’s day but I suggest that we look at Equality from different perspective. By including boys so they turn out let women feel inferior oc their worth and accord them the respect when in context without stereotyping.
