Happy International Women's Day!

On International Women’s Day, Caritas Internationalis joins the global call to advance equality and protect the dignity of every woman and girl.

Despite progress, women worldwide still hold only 64 per cent of the legal rights enjoyed by men. At the current pace, closing this gap could take 286 years.

Women are not only among those most affected by poverty and crisis. They are also leaders, peacebuilders, and drivers of resilient communities.

Caritas renews its commitment to support women’s leadership, protection and equal participation in every aspect of our work.
