Happy International Women's Day! As we celebrate women's achievements and work towards greater equity, it's important to remember that inequality exists even within our own gender. Neurodivergent/ women of colour often face a lack of understanding of their neuro-identity due to limited research and expertise. This #IWD, let's commit to #embraceequity and #allyship for neurodivergent women. In this article I highlight practical tips to get started. Let's create a more inclusive and equitable world for all women! #iwd2024 #neurodiversity #inclusionmatters #gender #womenofcolour

"A woman with a voice is, by definition, a strong woman." - Melinda Gates As many of you will be aware, today is International Women’s Day (IWD). Whilst IWD provides a platform for reflection, action, and advocacy for women's rights and gender equality, it can often be met with conflicting feelings and attitudes towards the day. And no wonder, when the main campaign proposed by the IWD website to #inspireinclusion, is accompanied by images of people shaping their hands into little hearts ❣ Surely to inspire inclusion you need to do more than just post an image of yourself?! Inspiring inclusion is something that is close to our actual hearts and an action that we consciously take daily within the Becoming community, not only on IWD. One way in which we continuously take action to #inspireinclusion is by amplifying women's voices through our Unjudged® events. These events are an opportunity for women to come together, listen deeply and hear stories from the lives of other women. Acknowledging and appreciating women’s voices is pivotal in constructing a more diverse, equitable, and empathetic society. If you want to take an actual step to #inspireinclusion, come along to our upcoming Unjudged® event next Wednesday 13th March at 12pm, where we will be joined by Lea Young , as she shares her story of living with multiple sclerosis. Register here: https://lnkd.in/eyfwXH75 When you take the time to understand someone's lived experiences, it's much easier to be a more effective ally and find actionable ways to be more inclusive of others. We hope to see you there! #womenempoweringwomen #inspirationalwomen #storytelling #inclusion #takeaction #stereotypes #biases #iwd2024 #freeevent #registernow #becoming

Did you know that today's International Women's Day ? As part of the day, at 2030hub we want to inform you about women lead cities, pioneering a path to gender equality. Currently only 5% of cities worldwide are led by women. This isn't good enough because research has proven that when women lead cities mean gender inequalities decrease and social issues are prioritised. These all lead to a better quality of life for everyone. Not just at city level but at a business level, women are not always employed at the top level, this needs to change! Everyone should be equal and that is what today is about, celebrating women and their achievement in life. At 2030hub we want you to think about women in charge and why they inspire you. Let us know the comment section below. #InvestInWomen #iwd2024 #womenday #wellbeing Photo by Gayatri Malhotra on Unsplash
