To celebrate Women鈥檚 History Month, African Initiatives, an international development charity based in St. Pauls, Bristol, England, launched the #InternationalSisterhood campaign. From childbirth to tampon taxes, women took to social media to share moments in their lives that inspired feelings of support, understanding, and sisterhood towards other women.

By showcasing moments of solidarity, African Initiatives hopes its campaign can help build a compassionate support system among women across the world.
