  • The COVID-19 pandemic put a cap on the usual flow of things. The schools got closed, restaurants, shops and small business shuttered, and quickly the living rooms turned into office spaces, community rooms, play rooms, and relaxation places all at the same time. The impact of the coronavirus however, was not felt evenly across the sexes with many women feeling the economic and social fallout.

    For this reason, NABC invites attendees from across the world to join the 4th edition of the annual International Women’s Day Celebration to be held on the 23rd of March at 11:00. The #ChooseToChallenge: The Impact of COVID-19 on Female Leadership session will facilitate a conversation with female leaders, changemakers and innovators to unravel the true impact of corona virus on female leadership.
