International Women's Day 2020

International Women's Day is celebrated every year on March 8th. This year the campaign theme is Each for Equal.

The main message of this year's campaign is that an equal world is an enabled world. We are all responsible for our own actions, our own thoughts, so we can all actively choose to challenge stereotypes, improve situations, fight bias and celebrate women's achievements. We are all parts of a whole.

Further, equality is not just a women's issue - it's a business issue, and it's essential for economies and communities to thrive. The positives a gender equal world bring to the table are healthier, wealthier and more harmonious communities, workplaces, etc. 

Together we can all help create a gender equal world!

MCC celebrated by striking this year's #EachforEqual pose and participating in local events like Maryland Public Television's Women Leadership Forum.
