International Women’s Day is held annually on March 8. It is a global celebration when,
women are recognized for their achievements without regard to divisions, whether national, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, economic or political [United Nations].
Each year has a theme and the theme for 2023 is DigitALL: Innovation and technology for gender equality.
Here at Lock & Co. Hatters, our team has been reflecting on what International Women’s Day means to them and for our business.
It is imperative to shed light on the remarkable strides women have made in their ongoing struggle for equity in our societies. Yet, it is equally critical to acknowledge the long and winding road that lies ahead. In solidarity with women worldwide, I pledge my support to those who are still fighting for their rightful place at the table.
