Across the globe, IWD gives people the opportunity to take action that will create change! So, here are a few ways that you can contribute, from the IWD site:

Declare what bold actions you are taking to help push gender equality!

Maybe you're taking a junior female employee to a client or sales meeting; maybe you're challenging the organizers of all-male speaking panel events; maybe you're launching a purposeful female-focused initiative; are you educating boys about sterotypes and violence against women? Are you being a mentor for a woman?

The "hands-in" campaign is the 2017 theme for International Women's Day. Post a photo of you and your work colleagues, your friends, your family, with your HANDS-IN to show your support for gender equality.

Be sure to use the hashtag #BeBoldForChange so that others can see your support as welll!
