IPRA President 2024, Nataša Pavlovic Bujas, attended an event jointly organised by the local branch of Inspiring Girls International and the Academy of Women’s Leadership, in Belgrade. The meeting celebrated International Women’s Day. The guest of honour was HE Ambassador of Sweden, Annika Ben David.
“According to a recent UN report the gender gap is bigger than ever, and we are facing a key challenge”, explains Bujas. “There will be an alarming $360 billion annual deficit in gender-equality measures by 2030. I believe that gender equality is the greatest human rights challenge today.”

Background to International Women’s Day

International Women’s Day is now celebrated in many countries around the world. It is a day when women are recognized for their achievements without regard to divisions, whether national, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, economic or political.
