This evening on Friday Night Reflections, we celebrate International Women’s Day, reflecting on the contribution of women in Muslim civilizations and honouring the extraordinary achievements of women across the spectrum of human activity.

Join journalist, actor and filmmaker Farah Merani as she explores women’s stories of resilience, courage and determination and discusses barriers faced as well as strategies for success with distinguished panel members:
