From Women’s History Month to global International Women’s Day celebrations, March is a time to champion the power of women’s voices and drive positive change.
Let’s be real, women are badass!
As you make your plans to celebrate International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month, here are four ways to access inspiring content from the past and even find new voices.
Discover women-led storytelling
The stories of women — both historical and contemporary — are inspiring. This Women’s History Month, immerse yourself in women’s voices and narratives. Google Play’s Women’s History Month / International Women’s Day hub is featuring curated collections of apps, games and books, alongside editorial content highlighting stories of financial empowerment, leadership and strong female characters.
Celebrate women throughout history
For a deeper dive into art by women around the world, explore Google Arts & Culture’s virtual exhibition featuring works from the National Museum of Women in the Arts, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and more. Continue the celebration by rediscovering forgotten trailblazers, from the woman who discovered DNA to history’s most successful pirate.
Support women-owned businesses
Women entrepreneurs and the businesses they lead are a powerful force for innovation and economic growth. You can easily discover women-owned businesses by visiting Google Maps and Search to look for the women-owned attribute. Check out these businesses and support those in your own local community. You can be intentional about shopping at women-owned businesses and recommend women-owned businesses in person and on social media.
Do something nice for the women in your life
Honor and appreciate the women in your life. Buy them flowers, cook them dinner, tell them they look pretty, give them a hug!
Mothers who gave us life, raised us to be good people, and still try to protect us from harm. Sisters with whom we may disagree sometimes, but who always give us a hug in the end. Aunts who like to be our second mothers. Cousins – our partners in mischief. Grandmothers who are certain we are perfect in every way (and like to spoil us from time to time). Stepmoms and mothers-in-law who took us under their wings.
Wives and partners who support us and show us the value of teamwork. Daughters who teach us what childish enthusiasm and unconditional love really mean. Granddaughters who always remember to call and visit more often. Nannies who took care of us when our mothers worked to provide for us.
