Doodle Art Director Thoka Maer illustrated this year's International Women's Day Doodle. Talking about what she hopes the world will see and feel watching her Doodle, Maer said, "I really hope that women feel seen and valued for whatever they've been doing and are doing right now. Getting up in the morning and getting through the day. Doing the dishes, holding on to the job or letting go of it, taking care of themselves and others. Those very basic things have been a huge piece of work since the beginning of the pandemic."
Meanwhile, International Women's Day celebrates the achievements of women and girls in various cultural, political, socioeconomic, and more scenarios. This year, the UN theme for International Women's Day is 'Gender equality today for a sustainable tomorrow'.
