About this event

This year, chapters across Europe have come together to host an online European International Women’s Day summit on April 24th. We are planning a day full of inspirational talks and practical workshops.

Our theme for 2021 is based on the incredible strength and power women have shown in the face of adversity. We recognize that there were tremendous challenges over the past year, especially for women, from dealing with COVID to broader issues of racial justice and human rights. But we remain hopeful about the future and the belief that together our community can create positive change throughout the world.

So…. what will you have the #CouragetoCreate in 2021?
