The Town of Milton is raising a flag at Town Hall in honour of International Women’s Day (IWD).
IWD, which falls annually on Mar. 8, is a celebration around the world aimed to raise awareness about women’s equality.
The theme this year is #BreakTheBias, which encourages people to fight for inclusivity and a gender-equal world.
Along with the theme, people are being encouraged to take a photo with the IWD #BreakTheBias pose, in which people’s arms are crossed to show solidarity.
A tweet posted to the Town of Milton’s Twitter page featured photos with members of the community striking the #BreakTheBias pose outside of Town Hall.
“We acknowledge and celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women around the world,” wrote the Town on Twitter.
