Women's day is celebrated tomorrow in many countries. In 1975, the United Nations marked March 8th as International Women's day, and each year the UN proposes a new discussion topic. This year the theme is "Women in Decision-Making." How are women changing public policy, affecting the workplace or influencing national politics? Today we'll take a look at women... In many ways.
