International Women’s Day
Its here again on the 8th of March and there’s lots of things on so we’ll give you the key offerings that we’ve spotted (as ever we take the day off as every day is women’s day for us)
IWD 2025 campaign theme is ‘Accelerate Action’
Collectively, we can Accelerate Action for gender equality.
Step forward in solidarity for International Women’s Day (IWD) 2025 on March 8 to help #AccelerateAction.
At the current rate of progress, it will take until 2158, which is roughly five generations from now, to reach full gender parity, according to data from the World Economic Forum.
Focusing on the need to Accelerate Action emphasizes the importance of taking swift and decisive steps to achieve gender equality. It calls for increased momentum and urgency in addressing the systemic barriers and biases that women face, both in personal and professional spheres.
So, together, let’s Accelerate Action to speed up the rate of progress worldwide.
