Mark your calendars for the 5th edition of International Women’s Day Breda on 11 March 2025!

This year, we gather in a broader and more impactful way as local organizations join forces to celebrate and work towards a more inclusive city. Breda Internationals, Gemeente Breda and Aithra have welcomed new team members of female-driven clubs such as VVAO, Els Borst Netwerk, International Women’s Club Breda and Soroptimisten Club Breda. 

This year, International Women’s Day will be celebrated on 11 March, following the Carnival break, to provide an opportunity for greater participation and more meaningful connections.

The global theme for 2025 is #AccelerateAction, urging us to drive forward gender equity, to amplify women’s voices, and to create real change—together.
