International Women's Day 2020

-


The International Women’s Day- a day dedicated solely to celebrate the achievements of women, raise awareness about equality and women empowerment.

This year, the theme for the celebration is “Each for Equal” which draws attention to the need for equality between genders as an ‘equal world is an enabled world’. The message behind the theme portrays that gender inequality is no longer just a women’s issue but rather a global issue as when women are empowered, communities as well as economies, thrive.

Having said that, in order to bring about a change and achieve gender equality, first, we must acknowledge and celebrate the achievements of women and at the same time raise awareness by calling out gender stereotypes and biases.

While a lot of progress has been made all over the world in the last decade, Bangladesh specially has done a remarkable job in championing women empowerment. On account of this, a substantial change can be seen in all sectors of the society where women are achieving new milestones every day. From the RMG sector to the corporate world, women are leading everywhere.

However, there is still a long way to go. According to the Global Gender Gap Report 2020, it will take at least another 100 years to achieve complete gender parity. Nonetheless, it is the ambitious campaigns from the likes of the International Women’s Day and many other that constantly shed light on the issues faced by women and keep the debate running to bring about solutions.

Therefore, on the occasion of this year’s International Women’s Day, let’s make a pledge to work towards forging a more gender equal world by encouraging women in leadership roles, creating inclusive work environments, cultures and working towards achieving a gender balanced world.

Shipping cargo from one place to another can be a very big task and usually involves millions of dollars. Therefore, in order to have a smooth operation, it is very important to have a proper plan in place to avoid any unnecessary hassles. Perhaps the most important part of the plan is to choose the right logistics partner as they will not only transport the cargo from one place to another but make sure it is done within time and with utmost care. When choosing a logistics partner, it is important to seek out a company that has sufficient experience in handling large amounts of cargo. Since handling such assignments require a lot of calculation and different transportation partners specialized for different types of cargo, and only large companies with financial stability and experience can smoothly run such operations on a daily basis. Another factor to consider is incoterms, which contain the commercial agreement that specifies who is in charge of the care and custody of
