About 2000 people marched, and sometimes danced, through the streets of Honiara this morning to celebrate International Women’s Day.
Under the theme “be bold for change” the crowd marched from the city centre to the National Art Gallery, where the crowd danced, played Australian football and heard Solomon Islands’ Government Ministers speak about the important role women play in local society.
Solomon Islands Government Minister for Women Freda A.B Tuki Soriacomua said the day was about making a “bold statement” to stand up and be bold for change.
