International Women’s Day 2025

Every year, March 8th is the opportunity to celebrate the advances made for gender equity and women across the globe. It is the time to take stock our efforts’ impact so far and look back at those of the giants before us: the many women (and men) who brought us to where we are today.

In honour of International Women’s Day, WIIS Brussels invites you to find out how much you truly know about this day and the progress in gender equality worldwide, in the EU and right here in Belgium.
