International Women's Day

International Women's Day is celebrated globally each year in March, highlighting the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women, and raising awareness of the continued inequalities they face.

The theme this year is “DigitALL: Innovation and technology for gender equality”, which recognizes and celebrates the women and girls who are championing the advancement of transformative technology and digital education. To mark this occasion, you can find selected content exploring this theme from across our portfolios, including Springer, BMC, Nature and Palgrave Macmillan.
