International Women’s Day (IWD) is 8 March. This year’s theme is March Forward: For all women and girls. It calls for action that can unlock equal rights, power and opportunities for all.
This IWD marks one-year since the Government released its 10-year plan for advancing gender equality, Working for Women: A Strategy for Gender Equality (Working for Women). It provides a point to reflect on the achievements made to build a more equal Australia for everyone’s benefit.
It is also a time to consider where we need more work to improve women’s lives and achieve the vision of an Australia where people are safe, treated with respect, have choices and have access to resources and equal outcomes no matter their gender.
