Hello everyone!
Today, the 8th of March, we celebrate International Women's Day or, as it is known in Polish - Międzynarodowy Dzień Kobiet. Today we acknowledge the struggles women have been through. Let's take a moment today to celebrate the achievements, and contributions of women. Take a moment today to honour all the women - in your family, among your friends, or those you've never met for their strength and dedication to changing this world for the better. Let's also remember, that there's still a lot to be done to eradicate the inequalities that still exist all around the world - today is a good occasion to reflect on that too.
To celebrate this day here on OLS, I wrote a blog post about heroines from Polish literature, enjoy! On Monday, the 10th of March, watch our Ask the Community forum, where I will start a new discussion about female characters in literature. I can't wait to read about inspiring female characters from the books in your languages.
Happy International Women's Day everyone!
