One World Action at International Women's Day

On March 8th 2010, One World Action staff, volunteers and supporters joined in solidarity with the International Women’s Day March to honour the resilience of the millions of women survivors of war. Internationally, women gathered on bridges to mark this historic occasion as a celebration as well as to draw attention to contemporary injustices that women are facing. During the rally, we were joined by high-profile women’s rights campaigners Annie Lennox, Cherie Lunghi and Sarah Brown. Following the march, we held a More Women More Power campaign stall at the women’s festival to encourage women campaigners to engage with One World Action by becoming a Women’s Rights Champion.
