Celebrate the Essence of Womanhood: Dr. Grace Pinto

Mumbai, Mar.07: International Women’s Day 2024 will focus on the theme, “Invest in women: Accelerate progress”. Investing in women in all aspects, especially in the education of girls is imperative for a prosperous future and to develop inclusive future societies.  Over the last several decades, we have witnessed women coming to the fore making noteworthy contributions to social, economic and cultural spheres.  Women have fought with all odds to emerge as winners.    

International Women’s day is a wonderful occasion to celebrate the inspiring works done by ordinary women who have played an extraordinary role to bring about transformation.  The contribution of women has been colossal.  This day is not only to salute these women achievers but also to celebrate every woman for her efforts to transform lives as a mother, wife, daughter and sister.  While there is progress and changes taking place in society for the welfare of women, a lot remains to be done for them in different parts of our country and across the globe.  Therefore, it is high time to invest in women so that they are provided with multiple opportunities to realize their potential and get an assurance that the future is promising, equal and bright.

Proverbs says: “Woman is clothed with strength and dignity and her value exceeds pearls.”  Every woman needs to realize that God has created her wonderfully with a plan and a purpose for her life and that she is treasured, valued, honoured and loved! The quote of Michelle Obama, "There is no limit to what we, as women, can accomplish," is very true as we see women today in the highest positions in every field making noteworthy contributions with their sheer dedication, resilience and commitment.  Education has opened up several avenues for women and with education as a tool in hand women can transform the society and generations to come.  Education has the power to empower and make women aware of their rights, dignity and capabilities. I urge everyone to celebrate the very essence of womanhood today: Let’s Celebrate her Achievements, Celebrate her Dreams and aspirations!  Let us connect with our fellow women and cheer them to dream big and follow their passion in life.

Wish you all a very Happy Women’s Day! “Forward ever, backward never…”
