International Women’s Day 2024 is being held on Friday 8 March in celebration of the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. Now in its 113th edition, this annual event is not affiliated with any specific country, group or organisation, and therefore serves as a global call to action for accelerating women’s equality in every aspect of life.
The theme of this year’s campaign is Inspire Inclusion. Its two-fold purpose is to help forge a more inclusive world by inspiring others to understand and value the contribution of women while inspiring women themselves to want to be included. It is hoped that the campaign, which is being amplified through social media using the hashtags #IWD2024 and #InspireInclusion, will generate a sense of belonging, relevance and empowerment.
Organisations, groups, and individuals worldwide all have a role to play in ensuring the needs, interests and aspirations of women are valued and included. In this respect, Toyota (GB) is widely recognised for its ongoing commitment to equality and is a founding member of the Automotive 30% Club.
As a company, Toyota is commemorating International Women’s Day 2024 within the broader celebration of Women’s History Month, which takes place annually throughout March. Through candid interviews and engaging videos, we aim to showcase the inspiring voices of individuals from various sectors within the Toyota family, shedding light on their journeys and perspectives, and how they have felt supported and empowered as women within the automotive industry.
