Each year, International Women’s Day is marked by a global theme that reflects the current challenges and strides toward gender equality. This theme serves as a powerful message that drives awareness, advocacy, and action.

Why This Year’s Theme Matters
This year’s theme, “Accelerate Action,” emphasizes the urgency of taking bold, immediate steps toward achieving gender equality. At the current pace, it will take over a century to close the global gender gap. This theme calls for faster progress in breaking barriers, dismantling biases, and ensuring equal opportunities for women everywhere.
At CedHER, we recognize that accelerating action means actively working to empower women, support female entrepreneurs, and advocate for inclusive workplaces. The time for change is now, and we are committed to being part of the movement that drives real impact.
