The Women’s Committee of the Arab-Brazilian Chamber of Commerce (ABCC), WAHI, held a morning of activities for the institution’s female staff on Friday (6) to mark International Women’s Day. At the ABCC’s headquarters in São Paulo, employees enjoyed a few hours of relaxation and leisure, including a yoga session focused on sorority, a term that reflects empathy among women. WAHI Committee chair Claudia Yazigi Haddad opened the morning by saying it was a moment to further strengthen their bonds. “In our daily lives, we all take on many roles. We’re daughters, mothers, sisters, wives, professionals—often all at the same time—and, of course, we’re always trying to manage everything. So today, we’ll give ourselves a small gift,” she said. The activity included breakfast and a raffle of gifts. Female representatives from the board and the wives of ABCC directors also took part alongside the staff members.
