Marked annually on 8 March every year, International Women's Day (IWD) is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity. Significant activity is witnessed worldwide as groups come together to celebrate women's achievements or rally for women's equality.
IWD 2025 campaign theme is 'Accelerate Action'.
Accelerate Action is a worldwide call to acknowledge the strategies, resources and activity that positively impact women's advancement, and to support and elevate their implementation.
Significant barriers to gender equality remain, yet with the right action and support, positive progress can be made for women everywhere.
As individuals, we can all take steps in our daily lives to positively impact women's advancement.
We can call out stereotypes, challenge discrimination, question bias, celebrate women's success, and so much more. Additionally, sharing our knowledge and encouragement with others is key.
