RELATEDWomen’s History MonthHow it was born and why it's observed in March
First lady Jill Biden, and Secretary of State Anthony Blinken are set to honor 11 woman leaders from around the globe at the White House today on International Women's Day.
The International Woman of Courage Awards ceremony is in its 17th year and recognizes those “who have demonstrated exceptional courage, strength, and leadership in advocating for peace, justice, human rights, gender equity and equality, and the empowerment of women and girls, in all their diversity – often at great personal risk and sacrifice,” according to a State Department news release.
This year’s event honors women from countries captured by crisis, including Yuliia “Taira” Paievska, Ukrainian medic, who last year spent three months in pro-Russian captivity after her capture near the Russian-occupied city of Mariupol in south Ukraine.
