Though I was part of the “Boy Experiment” – when Merici went co-educational between 1977 and 1983, on this International Women’s Day the word I choose is Equality.
Having strong female role models throughout my life has led me to be an advocate, ally and supporter of equality for women.
I was blessed to have met some of the strongest, fiercest and empathetic women at Merici.
I saw first hand what women are capable of and I am constantly amazed at what they achieve.
An experience I will never forget, and a cause I will always support.
