Get your child to draw around their hand 2. Talk about something that’s unfair in your child’s life – this could be about gender inequality or something else entirely 3. Write down how you’re going to challenge it within the outline and decorate 4. Take a picture with your art and post it online. You may want to tag some friends and challenge them to do the same 5. Don’t forget to tag GFS and use #ChooseToChallenge so we can see and share your amazing challenges. To take part yourself 1. Take a picture of yourself doing the IWD #ChooseToChallenge sign 2. Or, if you’re feeling crafty, you could give our art challenge a go instead 3. Post a picture online along with how you’re going to choose to challenge gender inequality this International Women’s Day 4.
