Top Female Inspirational Awareness Dates for Your 2026 Calendar
From gender equality and women’s health to leadership, confidence, and inclusion, national and international awareness days provide a powerful platform to motivate, support, and elevate women across your organisation. They create space for open conversation, shared learning, and the celebration of female voices and achievements.
Recognising these moments demonstrates a genuine commitment to advancing support for women in the workplace. Recent studies showed that women are still underrepresented at all levels in the corporate world, making up just 29% of C-Suite roles, with women of colour having an even smaller percentage of only 7%. By celebrating the following events, workplaces and institutions can reinforce a culture that values equity, visibility, and opportunity, encouraging reflection on progress while inspiring women to lead with confidence, ambition, and purpose.
In this in-depth guide, we have highlighted the top awareness days, weeks and months taking place in 2026. To ensure your year is full of education, recognition, and understanding, contact a member of our team to discuss your event and find the perfect speaker for you!
