The theme of IWD 2020 is 'EACH FOR EQUAL'. It is drawn from the notion of 'collective individualism'. EDITORIAL We are all parts of a whole, inter-related and interdependent. Our thoughts, attitudes and beliefs impact the way we speak and act in our relationships with others. Rosa Parks' defi ance of Alabama's segregation laws gave momentum to the Civil Rights movement in the US. Dr Rukhmabai's petition for release from a child marriage contract and her refusal to back down generated public debate in colonial India and Britain, and infl uenced the enactment of the Age of Consent Act, 1891. The struggle for equality for women in the family, workplace, social and religious institutions has been long and arduous; more so, because women fought it alone. Men decried it, believing that the rise of women would spell the fall of men. Later, even though patriarchal attitudes changed, men saw it as a women's issue, and stayed away. However, men's engagement is crucial. In fact, men's advocacy on the issue in recent years has accelerated the pace of progress. By questioning stereotypes and bias, they have put gender balance fi rmly on the agenda. Progressive leaders in business and political circles have come to accept what gender- related research has unequivocally substantiated – that equality is not just a women's issue. Gender equality is a business issue. Talent, skill, leadership is not gender-specifi c, and bias only cripples business. Statistics show that the low percentage of women in the organised workforce has stifl ed the growth of nations' health and wealth. Further, research studies indicate that with women entering the echelons of board and management, the paradigms of leadership have changed for the better.
