Want to host an event in your workplace?
We’d love to help you create a meaningful event for International Women’s Day in your workplace. If you’d like support for your corporate event – please email us at info@care.org.au. In the meantime, here are some ideas to get you started:
• Host a Her Circle event
You don’t have to break the bank or hire a venue to host a meaningful International Women’s Day activity. We’ve created a ready-to-go activity pack to help you facilitate a great event for your friends, group chat or colleagues. Whether it’s in-person or online, you can:
- Hold a breakfast/lunch/afternoon tea/dinner (include a Q&A, a panel discussion or invite a guest speaker + question time. You can use our conversation cards to help guide your discussion)
- Host a picnic (why not make it a pot-luck/fundraiser?) and ask people to use the conversation cards
- Take over your monthly team meeting (show the video, and break into groups to use the conversation cards)
- Host an online webinar Q&A and use breakout rooms to let your participants use the conversation cards to have better (and more interesting!) discussions about gender, poverty and power.
• Make a donation
Help create more opportunities for women to escape poverty and bring their circle with them — every action you take as an individual or with your friends and colleagues amplifies the impact women are having in their own communities.
• Take action on International Women’s Day
On the 8th of March, we look forward to shining a light on women who lead in their communities. Details coming soon!
Help us match her impact by amplifying Her Circle content online.
You can match the incredible impact she’s having in Her Circle by bringing four others along with you too. Your circle can be part of a huge community of people fighting for a fair world, and supporting women to defeat poverty.
Follow us on Instagram where we’ll be creating and sharing stories of Her Circle from around our region. One of the best ways we can shine a spotlight on women is to amplify and re-share their voices and their stories.
You never know who you might inspire …
