The UN Women’s theme for International Women’s Day this year is:
Cracking the Code – Innovation for a gender equal future.
UN Women Australia have some great information about the history of the day, and it’s continued importance for a brighter future:
- “IWD has become a time to reflect on progress, to call for change and to celebrate the courage and determination of the women who changed history, and those who will advance gender equality into the future…
- Research has continually demonstrated that gender-diverse companies perform better across a range of indicators – market value, innovation, productivity, talent acquisition and retention, culture and reputation.”
At Enterprise Care we’re passionate about advocating for gender equality, not only is it good for society, but it’s good for organisational performance too! Find out more about the origins of the day and the types of activities your organisation can get involved in through UN Women Australia.
