O International Women's Day is a date that mobilizes the market and the corporate environment every year, and it is very common for campaigns end up becoming repetitive and uncreative, after all, giving employees beauty vouchers and flowers says very little about the real meaning of this day.

Conversation circle
As mentioned above, the aim of March 8th is to raise awareness about various women's issues. This is why this suggestion, to organize lectures and conversation circles, is so necessary. Debating these issues provokes reflection among employees, of both sexes.
Before putting this initiative into practice, find out which topics the company's audience is most interested in.
To help you, here are some:
- Violence against women;
- Entrepreneurship and female leadership;
- Self-esteem and self-care;
- Female experiences;
- Motherhood and career;
- Inequality in the job market.
To make this debate even more interesting, invite a woman engaged with the chosen issue – a search on Linkedin, for example, can help you with this.
Although some topics are difficult, the idea is to make this moment light and comfortable for women, so keep the chat atmosphere and encourage the exchange of experiences.
Solidarity action
Supporting NGOs that help women is a very relevant action. There are several initiatives that promote incredible work, involving different women, in different situations. Search the surrounding area for the one closest to you and invite collaborators to understand and see the work of these institutions up close, this way, your donations will make even more sense.

- Gifts: Put together a self-love kit with items such as bath essences, nail polish, mirror, moisturizer and essences…Here, you can use your creativity to put together a really cool gift.
“Self-esteem and female power” campaign
