This year’s campaign theme is “Press for Progress” and it’s just fantastic to be pressing ahead with gender parity and other issues that affect all women world-wide. In most countries, in areas like education and health, we are on par with men. However, in the world of work women continue to be underemployed and work for lower wages than a man doing the same job. We all know that economic equality is worth fighting for not only for ourselves but for our families and the economy of our countries as well.</p>
