We Mean Business
On March 8, the world celebrates International Women’s Day. This year from March 1 – 12, our region will run the 3rd Annual International Womxn’s Week: IWW 2021.
Our community has a shared goal – to inspire, equip and empower womxn professionally. That’s why we’re bringing
nine jam-packed days of virtual events to our region and beyond.
It will take all of us working together to expedite change. This means having people from all walks of life, across all sectors, engaged. That includes you!
