Women's History Month: speakers, programming & vendors for ERGs services for ERGs.
Women's History Month is the annual observance held throughout March in the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia that recognizes the contributions of women to history, culture, and society, anchored by International Women's Day on March 8.
Women's History Month runs the full month of March and includes International Women's Day on March 8. ERG leaders use this window to elevate women's contributions across the business, surface structural barriers, and program for the women + non-binary employees who carry the weight of the rest of the year.

More than a calendar moment.
Women's History Month is a planning window for surfacing the structural realities women face at work — pay, promotion, caregiving, safety — alongside the celebration. ERG leaders who pair both build trust that outlasts March.
March 8 is International Women's Day — a global moment originating in the 1908 garment workers' strike. The month also intersects with Equal Pay Day (varies by year and demographic), making it a natural anchor for pay-equity conversations.
For ERG leaders, the work is twofold: celebrate the breadth of women's contributions across race, class, ability, and gender identity (women's ERGs often include trans and non-binary members), and elevate the everyday practices — mentorship, sponsorship, meeting habits, recognition — that actually move the needle.
What follows is the planning architecture: speakers, vendors, programming ideas, and a 6-week timeline — for ERG leaders who want a month with substance.
The WHM pitfalls.
What sinks WHM programming isn't usually a missing speaker — it's a misread of the moment. The three misses worth naming out loud.
White feminism on autopilot.
Programming that centers white, straight, cis, able-bodied women erases most of the membership. Build the calendar with diversity in mind.
Education without celebration.
Women's ERGs often anchor on panels, speakers, and learning — and that's valuable. But Women's History Month is more than an educational series. Celebration, joy, and community connection are just as central to the experience. Build programming that makes room for both.
Scheduling on top of caregiving.
6pm events exclude the people the month is supposed to honor. Default to working-hours programming, with recordings for anyone who can't attend live.
