Key 2024 Dates For Your Calendar

International Day of Women in Science - 11th March

International Women's Day - 8th March #InspireInclusion

Women's History Month - 1st March to 31st March

In response to the discrimination many women in STEM face, the International Day of Women in Science raises valuable awareness of industry inequalities. It is vital for workplaces within the STEM industry and beyond to recognise the International Day of Women in Science, and the ground-breaking achievements of female STEM professionals.  

Each year, International Women’s Day highlights the ongoing discrimination that limits female potential. From business to sport, the event encourages men, women and non-binary people across the globe to challenge gender inequalities around them. Female speakers are booked to recognise this important event, through their powerful stories of shattering glass ceilings. The theme of 2024 is #InspireInclusion. Take a look at our pick of the Top Female Speakers to Book for International Women’s Day Worldwide.

From 1918, when women won the right to vote, to 1970, with the Equal Pay Act, several historic moments contributed to gender equality today. Each year, Women’s History Month recognises such events and celebrates the achievements of female revolutionaries. It is important for businesses to honour women’s history, with the guidance of a female empowerment speaker. 

EveryWoman Day - 3rd September

National Women's Equality Day - 26th August

National Girls & Women In Sports Day - 3rd February

Women’s health and wellbeing is widely underfunded, leading to misdiagnosis and untreated conditions. Female speakers in science and healthcare are regularly booked to talk on this issue and recognise the importance of EveryWoman Day as an event. With fatigue and stress plaguing female professionals, these speakers highlight the value of self-care. 

Women’s Equality Day is an American celebration that commemorates the Nineteenth Amendment, which gave women the right to vote. The event is now recognised on a global scale, as a celebration of equality and political freedom. Corporate and public events alike recognise Women’s Equality Day, to honour the achievements of women throughout history. 

In sport, female athletes are often undervalued and underfunded. Compared to their male counterparts, they receive less media coverage and therefore financial investment, reflecting the importance of National Girls & Women in Sports Day. The event recognises the determination of female athletes, an attitude that can be translated for a working environment at corporate events.
