International Women’s Day is celebrated in countries around the world each year on March 8th. The theme for the 2022 International Women's Day is #BreakTheBias: Imagine a gender equal world. A world free of bias, stereotypes and discrimination. A world that's diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where difference is valued and celebrated. Together we can forge women's equality. Collectively we can all #BreakTheBias.

Community members are encouraged to strike the IWD #BreakTheBias pose (see example below) and send a selfie to Miranda Panzer at mpanzer@uwlax.edu. We'll be posting selfies on the International Women's Day social media.  

Sponsoring organizations include the American Association of University Women, the League of Women Voters of La Crosse, the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration, North Woods International School, the Women’s Fund of Greater La Crosse, Viterbo University, and the International Women’s Group.
