Empowering every woman: International Women’s Day 2025
Join the Health and Care Women Leaders Network's International Women’s Day webinar on Friday 7 March, from 10am to 12pm, held on Zoom. This event will showcase ongoing efforts to advance gender equality and enhance inclusivity for women in healthcare.
This year's theme, 'For ALL women and girls: Rights. Equality. Empowerment', calls for actions to unlock equal rights and opportunities where no one is left behind, emphasising the empowerment of women, especially young women and girls, as catalysts for lasting change.
Women's health is not a one-size-fits-all issue. It is influenced by factors such as race, socio-economic status, and disability. This International Women’s Day, the network aims to bring these intersectional perspectives to the forefront, fostering a deeper understanding and paving the way for more equitable healthcare services. The event will explore the importance of inclusive leadership, the impact of recent policies and advocacy efforts, and the role of innovation in creating a healthcare landscape that truly serves all women.
On the day, you will hear from keynote speakers, participate in panel sessions, and explore initiatives highlighting the diverse experiences of marginalised women as healthcare leaders and service users. Discover how you can empower women in your organisation.
