March 8 is International Women's Day, a global day dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women and girls. It’s also a time to highlight the progress made in advancing women’s rights and to emphasize the ongoing efforts needed to ensure their full participation in all aspects of society.
The Government of Canada’s theme for International Women’s Day 2025 is Strength in every story.
This year’s theme highlights the importance of amplifying the voices of all women, particularly those who continue to face barriers to success. Creating opportunities for women and girls unlocks their potential, drives innovation, supports Canada’s economy, and helps ensure a sustainable future for all.
Every woman’s story is a testament to resilience, determination, and the power of opportunity. This International Women’s Day, celebrate the women and girls in your life and share their stories.
We are so fortunate to have so many outstanding women in the Township of Russell—women who have not only made a lasting impact on our community but who continue to inspire future generations.
