Google Doodle features what women want on International Women’s Day [VIDEOS]

Instead of using usual animated character and mini games, Google marks the International Women’s Day with a special Google Doodle that presents real women sharing their aspirations with the world.

For this year’s celebration, the Internet search giant visited 13 countries, where they spoke to more than 300 females and asked them to complete the sentence, “One day I will…” The inspiring tribute features women of all ages – from toddlers to grandmothers – from San Francisco, Rio de Janeiro, Mexico City, Lagos, Moscow, Cairo, Berlin, London, Paris, Jakarta, Bangkok, New Delhi and Tokyo.

“Over the years, Doodles have commemorated the achievements of women in science, civil rights, journalism, sports, arts, technology and beyond,” Google said in its statement. “It’s always an honor to pay tribute to women who have changed the course of history, sometimes in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles. But for this year’s International Women’s Day, we wanted to celebrate the Doodle-worthy women of the future.”

The Google Doodle for March 8 showed a host of “One day I will” aspirations, from simple joys of swimming with pigs in the Bahamas, to socially relevant goals such as giving a voice to those who can’t speak. The video also shows support to the LGBT community, with one woman revealing, “One day I will marry her” while holding the hand of her partner.

Women who are accomplished in their various fields also took time to share their goals in life in the latest Google Doodle. Dame Jane Morris Goodall, United Nations Messenger of Peace, says that she hopes to have a discussion about the environment with Pope Francis. On the other hand, Nobel Prize winner Malala Yousafzai and activist Muzoon Almellehan seeks to work fearlessly toward a future where every girl can go to school.

Google also invites Internet users to share their own aspirations using the hash tag #OneDayIWill. “You never know, you could be the subject of a doodle yourself someday,” the search engine stated.

The Google Doodle for the International Women’s Day is created by Lydia Nichols, Helene Leroux and Liat Ben-Rafael, with original music by Merrill Garbus.
