As we approach International Women's Day 2023, let's work towards a more equitable world, where all women have the opportunity to thrive.
Here are some simple tips to achieve that!
1. Support female-run businesses
Even though more and more women are starting businesses, they still manage fewer businesses than men and run businesses in less profitable sectors that grow more slowly and are ultimately more likely to fail. Supporting their business gives them a sense of security.
2. Help women take time for themselves
Women sometimes need reinforcements to make sure they actually slow down. Being a reinforcer for one another in this way could look like helping to create the space and time for self-care to actualise.
3. Tell the women in your life that you care
Empower the women in your life and celebrate those who have made us the women that we are, whether it be your mum, your grandma, your sister, your friends or your teachers. Uplift women and tell them how much they mean to you.
