Last year, the WordPress Community came together to celebrate International Women’s Day with women-centric WordPress events across the globe.
It was our first-ever initiative of this kind, and the response was incredible. Communities hosted inspiring events that empowered women, amplified voices, and strengthened local ecosystems.

You can read the full recap here:

Women in WordPress: A Recap of Our International Women’s Day WordPress Events

We’re excited to announce that we’re bringing it back this year!
The Community Team invites local WordPress communities to once again organize women-focused WordPress events around International Women’s Day and to continue building inclusive, supportive spaces for women and gender minorities in tech.

Planning to host an event?
We’ve documented the entire process, guidelines, and best practices in a dedicated handbook to help organizers get started with confidence, covering the application process, budgeting, and event formats.

Read the handbook and learn how to apply:

We can’t wait to see communities around the world come together once again to celebrate, empower, and inspire women in WordPress. 💜
