This International Women’s Day, Tostan celebrates the positive impact of women’s empowerment on entire communities
Tomorrow, March 8, Tostan will celebrate International Women’s Day (IWD) by honoring the hard work our partner communities to empower women and girls and support the inclusive development of their communities. The theme of this year’s IWD, ‘Equality for women is progress for all’, embodies what has been a guiding principle in our holistic human rights-based Community Empowerment Program (CEP) since 1991.
