This year's theme seems fitting to discuss in the Atlassian community!
DigitALL: Innovation and technology for gender equality
For the United Nations, the 2023 theme for International Women's Day is "DigitALL: Innovation and technology for gender equality," highlighting gender gaps in STEM education and careers — and calling attention to the online harassment many women face. International Women's Day is also a reminder of the long road ahead.
Anyone have any fun ways that they celebrate?
