Dear Atlas Member,

International Women's Day, celebrated every 8 March, focuses on the successes and challenges of women around the world. This year's theme, "Equality for women is progress for all", reminds us that by truly empowering women and girls we can help find lasting solutions to many of the world's greatest problems. Read the message from the UN Secretary General and discover what events are planned.

Have a look at this month's newsletter where you will find information on new documents, recent discoveries and some latest innovations.

Find out about upcoming events, such as next month's Global Oceans Action Summit for Food Security and Blue Growth. Co-organized by the World Bank, FAO and the Governments of the Netherlands, Grenada, Indonesia, Mauritius, Norway and the United States of America, global leaders, ocean practitioners, scientists and representatives from government, business, civil society and international organizations will come together to explore action-oriented partnerships, governance arrangements, investment frameworks and new financing vehicles to turn the tide on the health of oceans.
