Hello, The Celebrate Women 2026 <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:Celebrate_Women> campaign is around the corner! Celebrate Women <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:Celebrate_Women> is a campaign that will run from March 1 to March 31. Every year, in celebration of International Women’s Day, Wikimedia organizers use this campaign to list gender-related events during March and as an opportunity to advance the achievements of the women’s rights and gender equity movement globally. These events create opportunities to grow content about women and non-binary people on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects. Join us! 💻 Do you want to participate? If you are hoping to participate, please stay tuned to this page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:Celebrate_Women#Events> for events that will be listed. Register for them individually by choosing those that suit your interests. The events will be added to the page in the next few weeks. And don't forget to register here <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:Celebrate_Women> (using the registration at the top of the page) to keep track of information relevant to the overall campaign.
