International Womens Day


 

Equality means each individual or group of people is given the same resources or opportunities.
Equity recognizes that each person has different circumstances, and allocates the exact resources and opportunities needed to reach an equal outcome.

International Women's Day 2023 campaign theme: #EmbraceEquity
For International Women's Day and beyond, let's all fully #EmbraceEquity.
Equity isn't just a nice-to-have, it's a must-have.
A focus on gender equity needs to be part of every society's DNA.
And it's critical to understand the difference between equity and equality.
The aim of the IWD 2023 #EmbraceEquity campaign theme is to get the world talking about Why equal opportunities aren't enough. People start from different places, so true inclusion and belonging require equitable action.

We can all truly embrace equity.
It's not just something we say. It's not just something we write about.
It's something we need to think about, know, value and embrace.
It's what we believe in, unconditionally. Equity means creating an inclusive world.
And we can all play a part
Each one of us can actively support and embrace equity within our own sphere of influence.

We can all challenge gender stereotypes, call out discrimination, draw attention to bias, and seek out inclusion.
Collective activism is what drives change. From grassroots action to wide-scale momentum, we can all embrace equity.
Forging gender equity isn't limited to women solely fighting the good fight. Allies are incredibly important for the social, economic, cultural, and political advancement of women.
Being included, and a sense of belonging, feel right
When we embrace equity, we embrace diversity, and we embrace inclusion.
We embrace equity to forge harmony and unity, and to help drive success for all.
Equality is the goal, and equity is the means to get there.
Through the process of equity, we can reach equality.

Embracing equity is the right thing to do - Don't just say it. Think it. Be it. Do it. Value it. Truly embrace it.
Embrace equity in all its forms.

This festival is celebrated as the victory of truth over falsehood as Lord Ram defeated Ravana and his army in a long battle. It is believed that burning the effigy of Ravana, Meghnad and Kumbhakaran on this day destroys all evils. On the other hand, according to another mythology, there was a demon named Mahishasura, who was a great devotee of Brahma. He had pleased Brahmaji with his hard penance and obtained a boon that no deity or any human living on earth could kill him. After receiving the boon, he became extremely ruthless and arrogant and started creating terror in the universe. He started attacking the gods and defeated them in battle and started capturing their territory. Disturbed by the terror of Mahishasura, all the gods and goddesses came to the shelter of Brahma, Vishnu and Lord Shiva. Seeing all the gods and goddesses in trouble, Brahma, Vi
