This year's International Women's Day on Monday 8 March sets out a challenge.

"A challenged world is an alert world and from challenge comes change. So let's all choose to challenge.
How will you help forge a gender equal world?
Celebrate women's achievement. Raise awareness against bias. Take action for equality."

To acknowledge this, we celebrate some of the women who have challenged us all with their inspiratioanl words and actions. We love to have different voices at Result CIC and one way we try to do this is via guest writers. Sometimes they'll write about their own lives or about a particular issue, but these women have all, in some way, challenged us to think differently or to celebrate their achievements.
