Today it is International Women’s Day and on the occasion of this day I attended #dignityforwomen event in Geneva yesterday, organised by the Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council (WSSCC) and the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) to celebrate the advances made by women in securing their human rights and dignity while discussing key challenges in policy and practice for future action: Inspiring Change to Promote Women’s Rights and Dignity.
