At Swaab we cel­e­brate all women, in all their diver­si­ties. We embrace their facets and inter­sec­tions of faith, race, eth­nic­i­ty, gen­der or sex­u­al iden­ti­ty, or dis­abil­i­ty. We cel­e­brate those who came before us, those who stand beside us now, and those who will come after.

The glob­al theme for Inter­na­tion­al Women’s Day in 2022 is ​‘Chang­ing Cli­mates: Equal­i­ty Today for a Sus­tain­able Tomor­row’. This year’s theme is all about recog­nis­ing and ampli­fy­ing the impor­tant role women and girls around the world play in address­ing cli­mate change.

This year’s Inter­na­tion­al Women’s Day (IWD) chal­lenges us to do exact­ly that: #Break­The­Bias and imag­ine a world where dif­fer­ence is val­ued and cel­e­brat­ed. A world free from bias, stereo­types and dis­crim­i­na­tion. A world that is diverse, equi­table and inclu­sive. For more infor­ma­tion click here
