International Women’s Day 8.3.2010
Today is International Women’s Day. On this occasion, we celebrate the achievements that women have made in all sectors of society, and consider what the future holds for our daughters and granddaughters.
Indeed, we live in a very different world from that of 1911, when his holiday was first established. In these past 99 years, the people of Europe, and the world as a whole, have made tremendous strides in promoting gender equality and bringing women’s issues to light. Everywhere in society, from corporate boardrooms to national legislatures, women are becoming more visible and more influential.
