International Women's Day
When & where
Date: 8 March 2026
Location: International
International Women’s Day - help to forge a gender equal world. Celebrating women's achievements and increasing visibility, while calling out inequality.
This year, Usdaw has launched our brand-new podcast, Talking Shop, in time for the celebrations.
In the first episode, General Secretary Joanne Thomas sits down with three guests to talk about International Women's Day, supporting women to get into political positions, how Labour are introducing policies that will help to support women in the workplace and how far-right parties are a threat to women and girls.
The theme for IWD 2026 is 'Give to Gain'.
