Women’s Month 2023 will be commemorated under the overarching theme: “Accelerating socio-economic opportunities for empowerment of women.” While our country has made numerous strides helping advance women, their full potential in our society is still to be realised. The reality is that gender inequality still persists with more women than men mired in poverty and unemployment. The month will focus on interventions across government, civil society and the private sector to develop women in our nation.
