About this Event

Event Overview

International Women’s Day is a global moment to celebrate women’s achievements while reflecting on the challenges that remain. This year’s theme, “Give to Gain,” invites us to explore how investing in women’s wellbeing, support networks, and leadership not only benefits individuals but also strengthens institutions and communities.

This event brings together academic staff, professional services colleagues, students, community and sector partners to explore how wellbeing is strengthened through generosity, connection, and shared experience, with particular attention to women’s experiences, resilience, and sustainable success.

Key Aims
