Celebrating International Women’s Day

Our March AMIP meeting, focused on Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Respect, was held on International Women’s Day (IWD).

Embracing equity is the theme for this year’s campaign, which looks to get the world talking about why equal opportunities aren’t enough.

The aim is to educate people on the difference between equity and equality, A focus on gender equity needs to be part of every society’s DNA, says the campaign, as people start from different places, so if true inclusion and belonging are to be achieved equitable action is required.

Attendees at the event, which was held onboard HMS Belfast, showed their support for IWD and shared their pledges and promises for embracing equity.
