International Women's Day Resources
Classroom activities for ages 9-14
Learn about gender equality and take action for a fairer world
International Women's Day (IWD) is celebrated each year on 8 March. It is a day when people around the world come together to recognise the achievements of women and girls, as well as call for more to be done to close the gender gap.
In 2023, this teaching resource (updated in 2022) could be used on IWD or any day of the year. It includes an assembly, quiz, activities and games to get young people learning and thinking about gender equality and any action they might like to take in response.
