Welcome to #IWDAtHome2021
#ChooseToChallenge and #SOAR
Celebrated annually on March 8th, International Women’s Day marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity while featuring the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women worldwide. It has been celebrated for over a century, with the first ever event held in 1911 with support from over a million people in Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Switzerland.
Having spoken at the 2017 and 2018 IWD celebrations, Alexis Hughes-Williams and Liz Delgado-Fitzgerald successfully launched the 2019 #IWDNashville event at The Parthenon, which was celebrated again in 2020.
For the 2021 International Women’s Day event, they have partnered with Lauren Bailey and Lindsey Ross to launch a new event experience: #IWDAtHome, broadcast live from two cities, Cincinnati and Nashville, simultaneously, with an amazing cast of Speakers and Performers ready to #SOAR.
After the difficulties we leave behind in 2020, our IWDTeam returns, more dedicated to their goals, partnering with like-minded allies across the spectrum, and working to create a legacy of events, talks, and workshops meant to further our progress on the path toward gender parity.
#IWDAtHome2021 continues the work of representing women, girls, and members of every shade of the gender spectrum involved in helping our Cincinnati and Nashville Communities #ChooseToChallenge and #SOAR.
