Celebrate International Women’s Day in Your Workplace

Sunday 8th March is International Women’s Day 2026.

International Women’s Day (IWD) is a global celebration and call to action for gender equality.

International Women’s Day is a chance to recognise the strides made toward gender equality and to honour the resilience and leadership of women and their allies.

It’s also an important moment for workplaces to celebrate the diverse contributions of women in their communities and call for change to address disparities and stereotypes.
