Prathana Mahanta, March 8: The theme for International Women’s Day 2022 is ‘Gender equality today for a sustainable tomorrow.’ If we go back to the past, the concept of a woman day caught on in Europe. The first International Women’s Day was held on March 19, 1911, drawing more than 1 million people to rallies worldwide.
Notably, purple, green and white are the colours of International Women’s Day. Purple menifests justice and dignity. Green menifests hope. White menifests purity. The campaign theme for International Women’s Day 2022 is #BreakTheBias.
Can we envision a rape free world? A woman must be stand up for herself. A woman must be deep-seated herself. The foremost thing for women is to empower other women. Happy Women’s Day to all the incredible women. Shine on. Everyday is a woman’s day!
