Wildan Care Foundation joins the global community in celebrating International Women’s Day (IWD) 2025 under the theme “Invest in Women: Accelerate Progress.”” This year’s theme underscores a fundamental truth—when we empower women and girls through education, economic opportunities, and leadership, we unlock the full potential of societies and drive sustainable development.
As an organization dedicated to advancing the education and empowerment of women and girls, Wildan Care Foundation reaffirms its commitment to breaking barriers that hinder gender equality. Across communities, women continue to face challenges, including limited access to quality education, economic marginalization, and systemic discrimination. It is imperative that governments, businesses, and civil society work together to dismantle these obstacles and create an inclusive future where every woman and girl can thrive.
In line with this year’s IWD theme, Wildan Care Foundation is actively investing in programs that support women’s education, vocational training, and mentorship. We believe that educating a girl today means building a stronger nation tomorrow. As such, we call on stakeholders to:
Prioritize education by ensuring that girls have access to quality learning opportunities, especially in underserved communities.
Support women’s economic empowerment by providing access to capital, mentorship, and market opportunities for female entrepreneurs.
End gender-based violence through stronger policies, awareness campaigns, and community engagement.
Encourage women’s leadership in decision-making spaces, from politics to corporate boardrooms.
On this International Women’s Day, let us move beyond words and take concrete actions to invest in women. Progress is not possible without women at the center of development. Together, we can build a world where every girl has the chance to learn, lead, and succeed.
