Today, Tuesday 8 March 2022, is International Women’s Day, a global day which celebrates the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. This year’s theme is #breakthebias, a call to action for all to challenge gender bias, discrimination and stereotyping wherever it arises.

In today’s launch podcast, Colleen Theron, CEO Ardea International, a tri-qualified lawyer and a champion of human and women’s rights, introduces her role and talks about how Ardea supports organisations to address business and human rights and modern slavery.
