International Women's Day (IWD) has been observed since the early 1900's - a time of great expansion and turbulence in the industrialized world that saw booming population growth and the rise of radical ideologies. 1908 Great unrest and critical debate was occurring among women. Women's oppression and inequality were spurring women to become more vocal and active in campaigning for change. Then in 1908, 15,000 women marched through New York City demanding shorter hours, better pay and voting rights. 1909 In accordance with a declaration by the Socialist Party of America, the first National Woman's Day (NWD) was observed across the United States on February 28. Women continued to celebrate NWD on the last Sunday of February until 1913. 1910 In 1910 a second International Conference of Working Women was held in Copenhagen. A woman named (Leader of the 'Women's Office' for the Social Democratic Party in Germany) tabled the idea of an International...
The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Umar Damagum , has expressed hope that the next president of Nigeria will be a woman. Damagum said this at the PDP International Women’s Day 2024 celebration at the party’s national headquarters in Abuja on Friday, March 8. Damagum who was represented by the party's National Secretary, Samuel Anyanwu, said the men in leadership positions have over the years failed Nigerians. “ The significance of mothers and the role of women cannot be overstated. Let me be sincere with you, I pray and hope that, even if not in our generation, one day a woman will become the president of this country. I say this with utmost sincerity and from the depth of my heart because I believe that the men have failed this generation .” he said
T here are several emerging trends and areas of research that may shape the future of computing: Quantum Computing : Quantum computing holds the potential to revolutionize computing by leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics to perform computations at speeds far beyond those of classical computers. Quantum computers could solve complex problems in areas such as cryptography, drug discovery, and optimization that are currently intractable for classical computers. Neuromorphic Computing : Inspired by the human brain, neuromorphic computing aims to develop computer architectures and algorithms that mimic the brain's neural networks. These systems could enable more efficient and powerful processing of sensory data, pattern recognition, and machine learning tasks. Edge Computing : Edge computing involves processing data closer to the source of generation, such as IoT devices or sensors, rather than relying solely on centralized data centers or cloud servers. This approach reduces...
