Insight into the 'Give To Gain' theme of IWD 2026

According the organizers of the observance of the IWD 2026 with 'Give To Gain' campaign, the aim is to encourage a mindset of generosity and collaboration.

They add, "Give To Gain emphasizes the power of reciprocity and support. When people, organizations, and communities give generously, opportunities and support for women increase. Giving is not a subtraction, it's intentional multiplication. When women thrive, we all rise."

Here a campaign theme poem based the focus of this year's observance.

GIVE TO GAIN: THEME POEM ON IWD-2026

Give respect, a listening ear,

Knowledge shared, banish fear.

Visibility's light, shining bright,

Value women, a future right.

Give justice fair, a steady hand,

Protection strong, across the land.

Resources shared, a helping hand,

Building up, a stronger band.

Give voice unheard, a chance to speak,

Protection pledged, to strong and weak.

Equity's seed, carefully sown,

So everyone, can call it home.

Give equal pay, for work the same,

Opportunities bloom, a different game.

Safety held, a sacred trust,

No one behind, consumed by dust.

Give training now, to learn and grow,

Access opened, let talents flow.

Participation urged, in every part,

A tapestry woven, with every heart.
