For International Women’s Day 2025, NCWNZ Wellington Branch organised a climate-focused panel and workshop event "How to talk about climate action" with support from Council for International Development and UN Women Aotearoa New Zealand, and generous support from the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The event was an opportunity for fellow climate and gender activists to come together and discuss how to have positive grassroots conversations about climate action.

As usual, we're looking forward to International Women's Day on 8 March and we're celebrating the UN Women NZ theme of 'March Forward: From Promises to Progress' and the hashtag #MarchForward.

This year we have quite a few resources to help you celebrate! Be sure you're keeping an eye on our social media channels so you don't miss out. 

As International Women’s Day draws near, closer to home Te Kaunihera Wahine o Aotearoa National Council of Women of New Zealand is using the event to encourage further progress in Aotearoa New Zealand.
