International Women's
Day 2023 campaign
theme:
#EmbraceEquity
For International Women's Day and beyond,
let's all fully #EmbraceEquity.

Equity isn't just a nice-to-have, it's a must-

have.

A focus on gender equity needs to be part of

every society's DNA.

And it's critical to understand the difference

between equity and equality.

The aim of the IWD 2023 #EmbraceEquity

campaign theme is to get the world talking
about Why equal opportunities aren't
enough. People start from different places,
so true inclusion and belonging require
equitable action.

Read more about this here.

So give equity a huge

embrace

We can all truly embrace equity.

It's not just something we say. It's not just

something we write about.

It's something we need to think about, know,

value and embrace.

It's what we believe in, unconditionally.

Equity means creating an inclusive world.

And we can all play a part

Each one of us can actively support and
embrace equity within our own sphere of
influence.

We can all challenge gender stereotypes, call

out discrimination, draw attention to bias,
and seek out inclusion.

Collective activism is what drives

change. From grassroots action to wide-
scale momentum, we can all embrace
equity.

Forging gender equity isn't limited to women

solely fighting the good fight. Allies are
incredibly important for the social, economic,
cultural, and political advancement of
women.

Everyone everywhere can play a part.

All IWD activity is valid.

That's what makes IWD so inclusive.

Collectively, we can all forge positive change.

Being included, and a

sense of belonging, feel
right
When we embrace equity, we embrace
diversity, and we embrace inclusion.

We embrace equity to forge harmony and

unity, and to help drive success for all.

Equality is the goal, and equity is the means

to get there.

Through the process of equity, we can reach

equality.

Embracing equity is the

right thing to do

Don't just say it. Think it. Be it. Do it. Value it.
Truly embrace it.

Embrace equity in all its forms.

How will you embrace

equity?

Share the passion and excitement that comes

from valuing and supporting difference.

Reflect on how we can all be part of the

solution, not the problem.

Encourage and rally your friends, family,

colleagues, and community to embrace
equity.

Together we can work collectively to impact

positive change.

Together we can all help forge an equal

world.

Let's all embrace equity today, and always.

International Women's Day (March 8) is a

global day celebrating the social, economic,
cultural, and political achievements of
women. The day also marks a call to action
for accelerating women's equality.

IWD has occurred for well over a century,

with the first IWD gathering in 1911
supported by over a million people. Today,
IWD belongs to all groups collectively
everywhere. IWD is not country, group or
organization specific.
