Get involved for IWD 2024

With a rich history spanning more than a century, the inaugural International Women’s Day (IWD) took place in March 1911. IWD transcends national borders, specific groups, or organizations; it serves as a day of unified global activism and celebration, open to all who are dedicated to advancing women’s equality.

Renowned feminist, journalist, and activist Gloria Steinem once remarked that the narrative of women’s struggle for equality isn’t owned by any single feminist or organization but rather by the combined efforts of all those who champion human rights.

Thus, let’s collaborate in the ongoing fight for equality. Every contribution to IWD, regardless of its form, is valuable, underscoring the inclusivity of the day. Join us in making IWD your own by taking actions that support and promote the progress of women.

Committing to inspire inclusion

When women are absent, it prompts the question: “Why?”

When women face discrimination, it’s crucial to address such unfair practices.

In instances where women are not treated fairly, it’s imperative to intervene.

Consistently, without fail, we must take a stand and act upon these principles.

Everyone everywhere can inspire inclusion

Organizations, collectives, and individuals across the globe have the opportunity to contribute – whether it’s in their communities, workplaces, homes, or elsewhere.

Genuine inclusion of women entails fully accepting their diverse characteristics, including race, age, abilities, faith, body image, and gender identity. It’s essential for women to be integrated into all areas of activity worldwide.

How will you inspire inclusion?

Individually, it’s crucial to recognize, appreciate, and actively promote the inclusion of women and girls. Furthermore, sharing this understanding, support, and encouragement with others is vital.

At an organizational or group level, there are numerous ways to ensure that the needs, interests, and aspirations of women and girls are acknowledged and integrated. Organizations and groups can promote #InspireInclusion through actions such as:

  • Empowering women economically
