ICMC Celebrates International Women’s Day

“In essence, women’s participation in Mediation is simply a
question of equality and fairness. Women make up half of a
community. Their voices should be heard.” – Hanna Tetteh

Today, the Institute of Chartered Mediators joins hands with
women across the globe to celebrate International Women’s Day.

Women are the foundation of the home, caring for, and lending
strength to, their partners and children. The home is the beginning
of the society, and as women work to maintain a sense of normalcy
in the face of hardships, and keep the peace in the face of
conflicts, they demonstrate the fundamental traits of a
Mediator.

As an institution dedicated to advocating the use of Mediation,
and other dispute resolution methods, we appreciate the strength,
determination and courage of women everywhere, who at their core,
are remarkable peacebuilders. We acknowledge the invaluable efforts
of our staff, our leaders, and our members, who make up half our
membership body

Man may work from sun to sun, but a woman’s work is never done,
so to the women accomplishing great feats, and to the women who
feel their efforts go unseen; we see you, we appreciate you, and we
support you as you challenge the status quo.

Happy International Women’s Day.
