Today is International Women’s Day; a day to celebrate freedom for women. Each year on 08th March it is celebrated by most of the countries and talks about deprivation of women in access to education, carrier, technology and many more.
The history of the celebration goes back to hundreds of years; it was first emerged in the honour movement for Women’s Rights in 1910. This year, United Nations has declared a theme of “Equal Access to Education, and Science and Technology: Pathway to Decent Work for Women”. Sri Lanka has adopted the concept as “Women’s Knowledge and Strength to Uplift the Country”.
