Washington Women in Public Relations

“Today, Moving Forward Together is not just a call for reflection but for action. It’s about breaking barriers in corporate boardrooms, leading nations, and running micro-businesses in emerging markets. It’s about having individual autonomy in the full definition of the word. And, it’s about supporting women in doing so.” Women’s History Month honors the achievements, resilience and lasting contributions of women throughout history. WWPR member, Seleana Wright, shares what this year’s theme means to her, reflects on the progress made and discusses why we should celebrate these victories.
