We Mean Business

On March 8, the world celebrates women’s economic, social, cultural, and political achievements on International Women’s Day. Inspired by this initiative, our community launched International Women’s Month (IWM)!

Every year in March, individuals and organizations join forces with the same goal: to inspire, equip and empower more women. Together, we host over 25 impact-focused events for women, champions and allies. Visit our calendar to see for yourself – and get involved!

IWM is far more than a set of activities and events. It is a powerful driver for long-term, sustainable change.
