The theme for this year’s International Women's Day is inspire inclusion. There shouldn’t be just one day a year to shine a spotlight on the power of inclusion in driving positive change for women everywhere, but International Women's Day serves as a really important moment to reflect, educate and learn about the ongoing journey towards gender equality and inclusivity. Because unfortunately, we really still aren’t there yet.

At Haymarket, we have just celebrated the one year anniversary of our revamped global sustainability agenda - Impact, which is centred closely around the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

In just a year we’ve managed to achieve some pretty big milestones, including a global content audit of our 70+ brands, to measure how our external voice is aligned with our Impact agenda.

One of the SDGs Impact aligns closely with is Gender Equality - and our content audit has captured various pieces of work relating to this.

Whether it’s written articles, campaigns, events, awards or educational resources, they cover everything from celebrating women, recognising female talent, breaking down stereotypes, calling out inequalities and much more.

In our final instalment for the week, Tara Geoghegan, Impact Manager, is joined by Rahat Kapur, editor of Campaign Asia-Pacific, Ramu Ramanathan, editor of PrintWeek India and Lauren Burke, Vice President of Content for Haymarket Medical Network.

Then in part two, Haymarket's global CTO, Richard Harding is joined by the wonderful Lexie Papaspyrou, Head of Product at the Tech Talent Charter, which Haymarket is a proud member of.

Lexie references it, so make sure you have a read of the Tech Talent Charter's latest Diversity in Tech report.

And of course, Happy International Women's Day 2024 to you all!
