An equal world is an enabled world. How will you help forge a gender equal world?
Celebrate women’s achievements. Raise awareness against bias. Take action for equality
This year the theme for International Women’s Day is Each for Equal. We took pleasure in finding just a few of our amazing PEI women that work as farmers, restaurateurs, food entrepreneurs, chefs, activists, and artists. They each struck a pose for us, symbolizing the equal sign =.
We’d love you to do the same this March 8th, and share your photos with us on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter
