“Every woman’s success should be an inspiration to another. We’re strongest when we cheer each other on.”- Serena Williams
8th march is celebrated every year as International Women’s Day, a day solely dedicated to celebrate the presence and achievements of all the women. #ChooseToChallenge is the 2021’s theme, where women can challenge anything that is holding them back and rise to glory.
With the popularity of various social media sites, the celebration is acknowledged globally. Over the last few years, brands have been actively joining the celebration. They are taking this opportunity to organize good social media campaigns where they try to talk about gender parity.
