A Run for a Cause! Mangaluru Women’s Run to Mark Intl Women’s Day on Sun 8 March
A Run for a Cause! Mangaluru Women’s Run (5 Km Run and 3 Km Walk) to Mark International Women’s Day on Sun 8 March organized by Ayog Enterprises, and Medimade Solutions, Mangaluru, in association with various Women Organizations like Lions/Lioness Clubs, Inner Wheel Club, also DKMUL and others.
Mangaluru: International Women’s Day takes place on 8 March 2020, and this year’s campaign, #EachForEqual, draws attention to the difference individuals can make. “An equal world is an enabled world” – and every one of us can do our bit to bring about gender equality. That’s the core message of #EachForEqual, the campaign at the centre of this year’s International Women’s Day. It seeks to draw attention to the idea that gender inequality isn’t a women’s issue, but an economic one – as gender equality is essential for economies and communities to thrive. And by celebrating women’s achievement, raising awareness of bias and calling out inequality, the campaign says, we can all help to bring about change.
As the campaign highlights, forging equality in these areas and more is crucial to a “healthier, wealthier and more harmonious” world. Gender parity is highly regarded as a benchmark of progress, and has a direct bearing on whether or not economies and societies thrive. While International Women’s Day is celebrated globally on 8 March every year in honour of Women’s remarkable contributions to society, locally here in Mangaluru, Ayog Enterprises, Mangaluru and Medimade Solutions, Mangaluru, in association with members of various women organizations like-Lions/lioness Club, Inner Wheel, and DKMUL, is organizing a “Mangaluru Women’s Run” (5 Km Run/Walk and 3 Km Run/Walk) on Sunday, 8 march 2020 at 6 am, starting from Ramakrishna College (near Bunts Hostel) Mangaluru.
