Celebrating International Women’s Day 2025
This year’s International Women’s Day (IWD) focused on the need to Accelerate Action, emphasising the importance of taking swift and decisive steps to achieve gender equality, and calling for increased momentum and urgency in addressing the systemic barriers and biases that women face, both in personal and professional spheres.
This aligns very much with our own strategic priorities, which includes publishing RCPsych’s first Women’s Mental Health strategy this year, with recommendations and action for improving gender equity for those accessing our services and our workforce.
We celebrated International Women’s Day 2025, with a member webinar: 'From Awareness to Action: The Increase in Mental health conditions in Girls and Young Women and the Role of Psychiatric and Parental Support'.
Speakers included Professor Tamsin Newlove-Delgado, Matilda Gosling, Dr Raka Maitra and Dr Su Sukumaran, with co-chairs Dr Stella Kingett and Dr Philippa Greenfield.
