International Women's Day

International Women's Day

International Women’s Day is both a global day of action toward gender parity and a day to recognize the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women.

Royal Roads University celebrates the achievements and contributions of women in our Royal Roads community and the important work they do year-round to advance conversations about women's empowerment, gender equity and inclusion.
