International Women's Day
International Women’s Day is 8 March 2025. This year’s global theme, “Accelerate Action,” emphasizes the importance of taking swift and decisive steps to achieve gender equality. Together, we can work collectively to make a positive impact for change and forge a fair and equal world in all aspects of our lives, including workplaces, communities, learning institutions, and beyond.
