World Poetry Day is celebrated on the 21st of March every year. To commemorate this event, I will be dedicating it to the celebration of womanhood. A WOMAN IS A POEM A woman is a poem, beauty lies not only in the words she speaks, but in the spaces between them, the subtle nuances that reveal the depth of her character. A woman is a poem, captured in the beauty and the depth of her soul. Her every movement is a stanza, her every thought a melody. flowing with graceful curves and intricate details, each verse revealing a unique story of strength, beauty, and resilience. a collection of moments woven together, each one a brushstroke in the tapestry of her life.

  It is International women’s day and this year’s focus is on DigitALL: innovation and technology for gender equality. Currently, there exists a wide gender gap in the IT space and the reason is that, for years, women have beloved that technology was just for men. Given our history, this is actually a ridiculous ideology because the first programmer ever was a woman. A mathematician, Ada Lovelace created a programming code in the 1800s, and paved the way for computers today. In the 1900s, Hedy Lamarr, who doubled as an actress and inventor developed the technology that runs our GPS, Bluetooth Wi-Fi, as we know them now. There are a host of other incredible women in history who has been in the IT field yet a gender gap exists and women still think that sciences are solely for men.

  In a radio broadcast on 8 May 1945, Winston Churchill announced that the Second World War had ended. The same day, the US President, Harry S. Truman, broke the news via radio to Americans. Like these, other events like the world cup, Miss World, results of elections or other competitions have been aired on the radio. For many years, the radio has been a powerful tool for disseminating diverse information and celebrating humanity’s feats. It has also been a tool for fostering inclusion, equity and unity as many radio stations create programs to showcase as many cultures as possible and give their audience a sense of belonging. Till today, radio is still the most accessible and most trusted media as acknowledged by different experts because it reaches places beyond the internet and cellular network.
