Women’s Equality Day 2021

Women’s Equality Day, celebrated every August 26, commemorates the passage of women’s suffrage in the U.S. and reminds us of the hurdles overcomed by the heroic women who faced violence and discrimination to propel the women’s movement forward.
Women aren’t done fighting for equal rights. Today, the wage gap between men and women still impacts women’s economic power, and gender-based discrimination still plagues workplaces and business transactions.
To remind us of the struggles of the past, present, and future, August 26 was designated as Women’s Equality Day in 1971.
Agastya International School recognises Women and their Power on this day..
