Before you start saying Happy International Women’s Day to your friends, colleagues, and clients, it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with the theme for International Women’s Day 2024. After all, it’s different (albeit as important) every year.
This year’s theme is Inspire Inclusion. But why?
IWD quotes the world-renowned feminist and activist, Gloria Steinem saying: “The story of women’s struggle for equality belongs to no single feminist nor to any one organization but to the collective efforts of all who care about human rights.”
That means that every woman reading this post has a role to play in terms of inspiring inclusivity.
“To truly include women means to openly embrace their diversity of race, age, ability, faith, body image, and how they identify. Worldwide, women must be included in all fields of endeavor.”
So get out there and say “Happy International Women’s Day” to everyone — whether you know them or not!
