International Women's Day 2023

The theme in Canada for International Women’s Day (IWD) 2023 is Every Woman Counts.

It’s a reminder that all women, from all ages and walks of life, have a place in every aspect of Canadian society, including in the economic, social and democratic spheres.

Let’s celebrate the successful women around us, reminding today’s youth and girls that their dream is within reach. And, the University is proud of the women of UPEI who are constantly making our University, province, and the world a better place!
