7 Unique Ways to Celebrate Women's Day
International Women's Day (IWD), held every year on 8 March, is a day of celebration and advocacy for women's rights and equality around the world. The theme of International Women's Day 2022 is 'Gender Equality Today for a Sustainable Tomorrow'. The theme focuses on advancing gender equality in the context of climate crisis and disaster risk reduction. Women are considered more vulnerable to the effects of climate change than men, as they constitute most of the world's poor and are more dependent on natural resources, making climate change most vulnerable. Whether it is by taking a pledge, or by highlighting the achievements of the women around you, it is important that you stay engaged and committed to the cause.
It's time to cheer yourself up to be a woman and achieve the things that stood against your caliber, to be courageous and brave to stand up against injustice and to prove empowered in any situation. Below are 7 unique happy women's day ideas that can celebrate this year in the least cheesy, least expensive, most fun way.
1. Celebrate with the women you admire
If you have a mentor it's time to reach out to her. Mentor-mentee relationships don't always have to be one-sided with your mentor. You must consciously look for ways to add value to your master's life. On that day, treat your mentor to a lunch or coffee date. If you wish to celebrate it with yourself, make the most of the day and treat yourself with whatever you like.
2. Women's day trivia
Gather your trivia buffs for a fun Women's Day trivia challenge. The game requires participants to recognize influential women from around the world by their quotes or feats. You can divide the staff into teams, or play individually, for this virtual Women's Day celebration idea.
3. Accomplish Personal Goals
Remember that thing? That important-but-oh-scary thing you've been procrastinating on? Yes, you know exactly what we are talking about, it just popped into your mind. Yes, then go. There is no better way to celebrate the completion of a difficult task. The harder it sounds, the better. Let your victory be a gift to yourself this International Women's Day.
4. Use social media to talk about women
Every year tons of IWD posts to Instagram and Facebook—and we love it. But this should not happen only once a year. Use social media to share stories about yourself, the women in your life, and the women who inspire you. We could all use a daily boost, and everyone needs to see how amazing women can be.
5. Fundraising and Donating
IWD is a great opportunity to implement an easy fundraising idea for your organization and donate to a women's shelter or women's shelter. You can also donate to support women-owned businesses. Remember, it's not just the symbolism - every drop counts. And often, such initiatives help create more awareness for women's causes than other celebratory initiatives.
6. Thoughtful Gifts
Everyone loves gifts no matter where they are in the corporate ladder. To make every lady in your life feel special, gift her a bouquet of flowers, a card and a chocolate. You can easily find thoughtful Women's Day gifts online on reputed websites.
7. Keep It Classic With a Thank You Note
Often, we forget how simple a 'thank you' can have on someone. So the upcoming IWD is a great way for your team to show your appreciation with a thank you note. Whether it's handwritten, printed, or digital, it's really the thought and honesty that matters.
Teach all the little girls in your life about the amazing things that come with being a woman. Teach them the importance of solidarity, the need to empower women and the power to fight for change. Wishing you a Happy International Women's Day 2022!
