It is a global call to action for gender parity, emphasising the importance of celebrating women's achievements, raising awareness about discrimination and taking decisive steps towards equality.

IWD keynote speakers are hired to inspire, educate and bring attention to gender equality issues, using their influence and expertise to spark meaningful conversations and drive momentum towards positive change on International Women's Day every year.
Celebrating International Women's Day is vital to highlight and address the gender imbalance in various sectors, such as in politics with only six EU countries having achieved a gender balance of more than 40% in their MPs. With a crucial emphasis on the need for greater equality, celebrate International Women's Day in 2024 and beyond to inspire female empowerment.
