Editor's Note
March 8, 2016 is International Women's Day. A day set aside to honor
women from all walks of life and their contributions to society.
Worldwide, women continue to contribute to social, economic, cultural
and political achievement.
And we have much to celebrate today. But progress towards gender parity
has slowed in many places.
The World Economic Forum predicted in 2014 that it would take until 2095
to achieve global gender parity. Then one year later in 2015, they
estimated that a slowdown in the already glacial pace of progress meant
the gender gap wouldn't close entirely until 2133.
Globally, with individuals pledging to move from talk to purposeful action and with men and women joining forces - we can collectively help women
advance equal to their numbers and realize the limitless potential they
offer economies the world over. We have urgent work to do. Are you ready
to accelerate gender parity?
