International Women’s Day (IWD), celebrated annually on March 8th, is a global movement recognizing the achievements of women across social, economic, cultural, and political spheres. It is a day to reflect on progress made, acknowledge challenges that remain, and advocate for a more inclusive and equitable future.
The History of International Women’s Day
The origins of IWD date back to the early 20th century when women began advocating for better working conditions, voting rights, and gender equality. The first National Women’s Day was observed in the United States in 1909, inspired by a labor movement. By 1911, International Women’s Day was officially recognized in Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Switzerland. Since then, it has evolved into a worldwide celebration, gaining recognition from the United Nations in 1975.
The Theme for 2025: Inspiring Inclusion
Each year, International Women’s Day is marked by a specific theme that highlights critical issues affecting women. The 2025 theme, Inspiring Inclusion, encourages individuals, businesses, and organizations to foster environments where women are empowered to lead, innovate, and thrive. Inclusion goes beyond equality—it ensures that every woman, regardless of background, has a seat at the table and a voice in decision-making processes.
Why International Women’s Day Matters
Despite significant progress, gender inequality remains a challenge in many parts of the world. Women continue to face barriers in leadership, unequal pay, and underrepresentation in key industries. By raising awareness and taking action, IWD serves as a reminder that gender parity benefits everyone—creating stronger economies, diverse workplaces, and more just societies.

Companies play a crucial role in driving gender equity. Here are some ways organizations can support and celebrate IWD:

Host empowerment events: Organize panel discussions, networking sessions, or mentorship programs to support women’s professional growth.
