**

In conjunction with International Women’s Day, on 8th of March WABA is
pleased to present our Statement on the theme “ The Gender Agenda: Gaining
Momentum” .

International Women’s Day (IWD) is an opportunity to reflect on the
importance of supporting mothers who increasingly work both at home and
elsewhere in the formal and informal sectors.In some instances even playing
the role of the main breadwinner of the family.


Women everywhere have to juggle with the increasing and competing demands
on them - from their families, children, partners and work. Women’s
struggles to balance their productive and reproductive roles often come at
enormous cost to themselves and their breastfeeding babies.

Please share the Statement with your constituencies and friends.

WABA and partners dance the **BREAK THE CHAIN** dance revolution that was
performed on 14 February for *One Billion Rising. *
