International Women’s Day (IWD) officially began 101 years ago, when more than one million men and women attended IWD rallies to campaign for women’s rights to work, vote, hold public office, and fight against discrimination. Now thousands of events are held throughout the world on March 8, the official day for IWD.

In honor of IWD, Georgia Tech Women Alumni Network will host Change Your World Inaugural Women’s Forum on Saturday, March 10 to focus on the achievements and development of professional potential of women.
