Today is International Womens Day,👩‍💼👩🏻‍⚕️👩🏽‍🎤

Good morning everyone, today it is International Womens day.

There's been a lot going on in the developed countries with the 'Times Up' campaign in Hollywood and on the BBC amongst others about equal pay. This is all great and a great step forward and we in the developed industrial countries ought to stand up for those less fortunate than us who really deserve 'our' support, so as well as a link to International womens day I'm putting a link to a petition supporting the right of women all over the world to have an education and a bank account amongst other basic human rights, with life style choices that we in the affluent west take for granted.

Here's the Poverty is sexist petition:

Thanks for highlighting this. I downloaded the great wallpapers from the one.org site

It looks like international women's day and gender issues generally are really starting to move into the mainstream, which is a fantastic development

#MeToo campaign has been gaining momentum, too.
