The 2025 theme, #AccelerateAction, emphasizes the need for swift, collective efforts to dismantle systemic barriers and drive meaningful progress worldwide.

"The story of women's struggle for equality belongs to no single feminist nor to any one organization but to the collective efforts of all who care about human rights."

- Gloria Steinem
