International Women's Day

Accelerating action for women’s economic empowerment

IFC IWD Campaign 2025 - 1920x1080 - IWD 2025 - For March 8

On International Women’s Day, we celebrate the incredible contributions of women worldwide. While progress has been made, much remains to be done to ensure that more women have the tools and opportunities to fully contribute their talents.

IFC is uniquely positioned to drive a private sector-led approach that opens more opportunities for more women. We work with investors to allocate capital to women-led businesses. We support buyers and suppliers to open opportunities for women to participate in supply chains. We encourage employers to ensure opportunities for women’s employment and leadership.

When women and girls are empowered to reach their full potential, they create jobs, drive innovation, and fuel economic growth.
