IWD Zoom background via internationalwomensday.com

 Today, Tuesday 8th of March, is International Women's Day 2022 and this year the theme is "BREAK THE BIAS" but amidst all the campaigning and events across the world, the silent question begging for a genuine answer is, can we break the bias? If you were a male or female recruiter mandated to get Experts behind the computers in the office depicted above, will you employ 3 women and 3 men accordingly?

 Will your choices be free of: bias, stereotypes and discrimination? 

Will your choices be: diverse, equitable and inclusive?

Can we break the bias? My personal answer is, YES WE CAN #BreakTheBias and here is how:

If you were born of a woman; have a sister or a daughter, then best time to act is now!

This has nothing to do with who is the head of the family or not! 

Yes we all have to help forge a gender equal world; everything will be much better, wouldn't it?

Collectively we can all #BreakTheBias !!! I hope women all around the world have had a meaningful day's celebration and still doing so. Our heart break for innocent women and children in Ukraine right now. All we can do for you is pray that things get back to normal for you and your husbands, fathers and brothers. Hopefully, some day, we will raise our heads in confidence and say, we all played our roles to #BreakTheBias.
