International Women’s Day is approaching, and global communities are sparking ways to participate in IWD. The onset of this day raises brows on several factors related to women, whether it is gender equality, women’s safety, or other important topics that demand attention. However, the definition of March 8th changes every year, and this year's theme is “For ALL women and girls: Rights. Equality. Empowerment.”.

The campaign aims to raise awareness of gender equality. According to resources, it will take the year 2158 and nearly five more generations to eliminate complete gender parity. And the baby steps start today.

Why Is IWD Celebrated On March 8th?

Women’s Day is marked on 8th March. In 1917, Russian women went on strike, demanding “bread and peace” during wartime. Lasting for four days, this strike forced the tsar to abdicate, and the government had to grant voting rights to women. From then until today, 8th March is commemorated as the IWD. 

Today, everyone from communities to businesses to individuals is participating in International Women’s Day and making their contribution to women's empowerment. Here is how you can also participate. 

How Can I Participate In IWD?

As a community or a business, you can participate in the International women’s day celebration in the following ways.

Honor Women’s Achievements

The UN organizes a special UN Commemoration event to award women for their achievements over the years. As an organization, you can take this IWD as your moment to appreciate women for their hard work. Give them trophies worth decorating a chest of drawers or room planters that they can keep on a gorgeous bone inlay bedside table. Or gift them picture frames that they can stick next to the mirror and feel proud of each moment. 

Raising Awareness About Gender Equality 

It has been centuries, but we are still fighting gender bias, be it in terms of gender pay or while visiting a holy place. Take an initiative on this IWD by highlighting the policies you have implemented for gender equality and a positive work environment for women. 

Advocating For Gender Parity

Be the confidante for the ladies by creating a robust gender parity map for everyone. Gender parity allows numerical figures to be compared regarding representation and comparison between all. Figurative comparison will give a rigid solution to parity and convince the crowd about the initiatives you are willing to take on this IWD. 

Creating A Safe Space For Genuine Conversation 

A small act of kindness can leave a positive impact on people. Be one for the women at your workplace by creating a positive environment where women have the freedom to speak. Create a safe aura for women where they can have genuine conversations, even when they start with " How are you?” and do not end simply with "I am fine." Increasing a sense of responsibility and belongingness will contribute to more inclusivity, openness, and women's empowerment. 

Implementing Women’s Day Decorations

Let every woman in your office step into a workplace where they forget every hustle and suddenly remember that it is their day. So, here are some women’s day decoration ideas you can try in your office. 

Women’s Day Creative Ideas For Decorations

Creating A Color Theme

Create a color-specific theme in your office, like purple decor. Ask both men and women to wear purple on this day to raise solidarity, inclusivity, and balance in the environment. Next, you must create a purple space with furniture like bone inlay chest of drawers in lilac. Further, put the decor accessories in similar tones and create an engaging furniture piece that attracts people towards them and gives an idea that something more is yet to come. 

Decorate This Corner And The Entire Office

A surefire idea to raise excitement among the employees is to decorate the office in the colors of Women’s Day and solidarity, like PURPLE. Use a whole wall for this by putting posters appreciating women and raising awareness. Amidst these posters, you can also put a mirror frame like a purple bone inlay mirror amidst the purple decor. This mirror is just to look at yourself, and feel proud and as powerful as the posters around speak for you. 

Prepare Enough Social Media Content

We know preparing social media posts for the company’s profile is compulsory. But this time, you can use this social media handle for yourself. Take enough fun pictures with all the employees in purple, create selfie booths, and have fun on the name of pictures. Also, embrace the IWD aura with the “For ALL women and girls: Rights. Equality. Empowerment.” campaign. Let the world know you stand with all. 

Thank Your People

Thank everyone in the office who took the initiative to participate in the IWD campaign, helped create a safe environment for everyone in the office, and encouraged solidarity. As an appreciation gesture, you can also check for women’s day DIY gift ideas

Host A Celebratory Brunch

Host a casual brunch in the office that does not necessarily demand a full-course meal. Plates of chips, junk, cold drinks, and bean bags around the table are enough to let the women relax and have fun. For this brunch, you can pick a spacious and broad bone inlay coffee table or nest of tables that are ready to serve sufficient meals. Walk around, sit back, and raise a toast to celebrate womanhood. 

Remember! Everyday can be women’s day and each day can be men’s day. We believe in solidarity, equality, and empowerment. Team Luxury Handicraft wishes you a very Happy Women’s Day 2025.
