Brainstorming International Women’s Day video ideas for your company? Look no further, our list of video ideas for celebrating International Women’s Day and March’s Women’s History Month will get you inspired to create video content for your company’s employer branding, social media, internal communications, and more…
International Women’s Day (IWD) is a global celebration of women’s achievements and a call for gender equality.
2025’s theme is “Accelerate Action”.
Why?
Because at the current rate of progress, it will take until 2158 (five generations from now!) to reach full gender parity, according to data from the World Economic Forum.
So this year’s theme highlights the need for swift and determined action to advance gender equality.
It urges greater speed and commitment in tackling the deep-rooted obstacles and prejudices that women encounter in both their personal lives and careers.
Creating a video for IWD can be an effective way to show you support women in your organization and beyond.
Videos like these are great for not only highlighting your company culture but also illustrating to potential employees and customers what your values are.
And while International Women’s Day is on March 8th, March is Women’s History Month – so you can create and share videos all month!
At EditMate, we’ve seen a big uptick in Employee Experience, Employer Brand, Internal Communications, and Marketing teams producing videos for International Women’s Day the last few years, so we thought we would share a list of 6 ideas for videos that can help you celebrate the holiday all month long…
Showcase Female Leadership
Show off the female leaders in your C-Suite or Executive Team, and have them share career advice for the younger generation.
Ask them: How did they get to where they are today? What wisdom would they want to impart to their younger selves?
Fun fact: A study by McKinsey management consultants found that “companies in the top quartile for gender diversity on executive teams were 21% more likely to outperform on profitability.”
It truly pays to have women in leadership roles.
Highlight How Your Organization Supports Women
Produce a video that showcases the concrete ways that your business supports women, like:
- Offering learning, training, resources, and development programs that help female employees succeed
- Creating an employee compensation program that is fair, equitable, and transparent
- Providing mentorships for both current employees and young women in your wider community
- Enabling new parents to take paid time off. Solid parental leave policies (as well as leave for other types of family caregiving) are essential to enabling everyone to succeed and advance in their careers.
- Providing childcare subsidies or on-site childcare for parents. Many workplaces are built on old models of how a family operates, but companies must adapt to the reality of contemporary life.
- Offering flexible schedules with a genuine focus on work-life balance
- Emphasizing diversity during your recruitment process
Interview the Inspiring Women from your Company
Conduct interviews with women at your organization (from every level) about their career trajectory, and ask them about their experiences, hopes, struggles, and successes.
Your community will be inspired to learn the personal stories of your real employees.
Film an interview series with the female leaders at your company to produce video content for Women’s History Month in March and all year long.
Celebrate Diversity
Make a video highlighting the diverse experiences of women from different cultures and backgrounds at your organization.
Showcase their achievements while emphasizing the importance of inclusivity, intersectionality, and equity.
Promote Advocacy and Activism
Showcase the work of women’s rights organizations and activists around the world and how it relates to your business.
Find connections between advocacy and your industry (i.e. progress in the STEM field, female activists who have specifically impacted your space) to highlight the importance of advocacy in fighting for women’s rights.
Feature Notable Women in Your Industry
Create a listicle video that highlights 3-5 impactful women in your industry, detailing their history and accomplishments.
