IWF Georgia Invites You to the 7th Annual International Women’s Day – IWD 2026 Program, Hosted by Georgia Institute of Technology on March 24, 2026

IWF Georgia is celebrating the importance of International Women’s Day (IWD) by hosting its 7th annual program to raise awareness of the condition of women in the U.S. and worldwide. We invite you to partner with us for this year’s event IWD: Women of Courage planned for March 24, 2026. The event is led this year by IWD Chair, Susan O’Farrell, Independent Corporate Director and community voluteer.  

    Funds raised by your participation will support IWF Georgia in the following ways: 

    • Support for IWF Georgia members’ mentoring program, PowerTalk, for college students majoring in international studies or selected for leadership programs at their universities and a select number of early career women who are employees of the program’s sponsors.
    • Support the admission of a non-corporate rising female leader, nominated by IWF Georgia, into the IWF Global Fellowship Program - a nine-month leadership program. See recent Georgia Fellows pictured below.
    • Support powerful programming focused on the status of women’s leadership and equality world-wide. 


    As the only external facing event for IWF Georgia, we anticipate approximately 250 attendees for the 2026 IWD program including members, leaders from the greater Atlanta region in business, government, academia community; leaders from metro Atlanta immigrant communities; women Consul Generals in Georgia; IWF members from neighboring states; leaders of IWF Global including the IWF Global CEO and IWF Global Board members from other countries, members of IWF Georgia, and women participating in our mentoring program described below.
