Let's reflect back on theInspire Inclusionfocusfrom IWD 2024.
When we inspire others to understand and value women's inclusion, we forge a better world.
And when women themselves are inspired to be included, there's a sense of belonging, relevance, and empowerment.
Collectively, for IWD 2024 we aimed to forge a more inclusive world for women.

Committing to inspire inclusion
When women aren't present, we must ask: "If not, why not?"
When women are discriminated against, we must call out poor practice.
When the treatment of women is not equitable, we must take action.
And we must do this each time, every time.
Everyone everywhere can inspire inclusion
Organizations, groups, and individuals worldwide can all play a part - in the community, at work, at home, and beyond.
To truly include women means to openly embrace their diversity of race, age, ability, faith, body image, and how they identify. Worldwide, women must be included in all fields of endeavour.
How will you continue to inspire inclusion?
On an individual basis, it's important to understand, value and seek out the inclusion of women and girls. Additionally, sharing this knowledge, support and encouragement with others is key.
On an organizational or group basis, there are many ways to ensure the needs, interests and aspirations of women and girls are valued and included. Organizations and groups continue to#InspireInclusion throughout the year in areas such as:
