On International Women's Day, Íñigo Meirás, CEO of Ferrovial, joins along with the Steering Committee, the HeForShe international solidarity movement for gender equality and invites all employees to join this voluntary initiative promoted by UN Women, "I believe that the road to real equality should be travelled by men and women together so I encourage you to join this commitment and spread it through different social networks."
The goal of this movement is to involve men and boys as advocates and agents of change in achieving equality and women's rights, thus forging a common vision of human progress for everyone.
