International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. The day also serves as a rallying cry for greater gender equality. Worldwide, significant activity is observed as groups come together to celebrate women’s achievements or to rally for women’s equality.
International Women’s Day, observed annually on March 8th, is one of the most important days of the year to celebrate women’s achievements, educate and promote awareness for women’s equality, and call for positive change in women’s advancement.
This year’s International Women’s Day theme is #EmbraceEquity. Equity is more than a nice-to-have; it’s a must-have, and it’s not just something we say. It’s not just something we write about; it’s something we need to think about, understand, and embrace; it’s something we believe in wholeheartedly. Equity means creating a world free of bias, discrimination, and stereotypes. A world in which diversity is celebrated and valued.
Within our own spheres, each of us can actively support and embrace equity.
Let’s #EmbraceEquity together
