True to our belief, that #diversity365 is better than a day or month a year of diversity, we have prepared resources for you to not just get ready for International’s Women Day 2022 but to use throughout the year. And we look very much forward to #BreakTheBias with you!
We wish we could say we invented it (what an excellent idea), but IWD has occurred for well over a century. The first IWD gathering in 1911 was supported by over a million people and today, IWD belongs to all groups collectively everywhere. IWD is not country, group or organization specific. Just as the cause to have equality for all, IWD also belongs to us all and each of us has to take an active part. #IWD2022
We hope that the resources we have collected or created for you will help you to take your part in #BreakTheBias.
#BreakTheBias
Together we can #BreakTheBias and forge women’s equality. A diverse, equitable, inclusive world, that is free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination and where difference is valued and celebrated. That’s what IWD has set for this year’s motto “Break the Bias”. Yes, the list is long but far from unreasonable.
