International Women’s Day 2023

The theme this year is Embrace Equity, which aims to foster a gender-equal world, free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination – a world that's diverse, equitable and inclusive, where difference is valued and celebrated. 

International Women’s Day offers the perfect opportunity to think about the diversity of women’s lived experiences and the specific mental and physical health challenges women deal with every day.
