International Women's Day Resources for Australian Teachers

  • International Women's Day 2025 Teaching Resources

    Celebrate International Women’s Day on 8 March with our Australian Curriculum-aligned education resources. Engage students in learning about women in history—both recent and not-so-recent—and inspire them to imagine a gender-equal future for all.

Accelerate action for gender equality

History isn’t just what happened in the distant past. It’s what happened just moments ago. From STEM and sports to voting and world conflicts, these downloadable and editable teaching resources explore how women are making and have been part of history.

Download your favourites, explore how policy and systems impact women on global and local scales and #AccelerateAction with your students.
