International Women's Day, on Tuesday 8 March, celebrates women’s achievements, taking action on equality. This year's theme 'breaking the bias' is about working towards a world free of stereotypes and discrimination that is diverse, equitable and inclusive.
Westminster will be sharing stories and running events in the upcoming week that will include inspirational women speakers, innovative and thought-provoking discussions and good news stories from across Westminster and beyond:
Join this Westminster Conversation between Dr Randhir Auluck (Head of the School of Organisation, Economy and Society), Professor Alex Hughes (Deputy Vice-Chancellor Global Engagement) and Dr Deborah Husbands (Co-Chair, BME Network; Senior Lecturer in Psychology) on identity and resilience.
This International Women’s Day, join award-winning alumna Neveen Galal, Founder of Amnesty Solicitors. Neveen will offer her insight and advice on how to be a successful leader, and reflect on her journey to becoming an immigration human rights lawyer.
To celebrate International Women’s Day, the London Australian Film Society, in partnership with Regent Street Cinema, is proud to present an exclusive preview screening of thrilling western The Drover's Wife: The Legend of Molly Johnson. A labour of love for Leah Purcell who wrote, directed and stars in the film, The Drover's Wife is her third adaptation of Henry Lawson’s Australian classic short story of the same name, having previously adapted as a play and a novel. Purcell’s cinematic version is a thrilling tale that tells of the racism and misogyny of colonial outback Australia– and one woman’s determination to thrive within it.
The Women of Westminster (WOW) Colleagues Network is organising a talk on 'Empowering yourself' to celebrate the International Women's Day 2022.
