Building a better future means making sure that every citizen can lead, contribute, and prosper. And that includes all women. It’s giving women more choices in the workforce, closing the gender wage gap, and reaffirming our collective commitment to women’s leadership – from public offices to corporate boardrooms to university and college campuses. As women’s rights come under attack, we need to do even more to empower and celebrate the voices of women, and especially diverse women. Because when women and girls succeed, we all do.

–	The Right Honourable Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada
