In 2025–2026, we’re moving beyond raising awareness — we’re turning it into
action. This year’s theme challenges us to come together, educate, and empower
our communities to drive real, lasting change in the fight for women’s rights.
Through collective engagement, advocacy, and bold collaboration, we aim to
transform conversations into progress — shaping policies, shifting systems, and
strengthening the movement for equity and justice.
