Women’s Print HERstory Month is returning next month to celebrate the women working in the print industry.
Timed to coincide with Women’s History Month, the event was launched in 2019 by GirlsWhoPrint.net and aims to tell stories that empower and inspire ‘the fierce fabulous females of print,’ as well as young women and students entering the industry or considering print as a career.
The company is calling on women in the sector to join in and share their career and success stories through social media using the hashtag #PrintHERstoryMonth.
‘Women’s Print HERstory Month has never been more important,’ said Deborah Corn, Girl #1 at Girls Who Print. ‘The pandemic is disproportionately removing women from the global workforce and staying visible, celebrating our presence and successes loudly in a male-dominated field, is up to us. Everyone can show their support by following the #PrintHERstoryMonth hashtag stream and engaging with the content. A ‘like’ or a reshare or a retweet is an acknowledgement that the achievements of women in print matter.’
The organisation added that this is also a call to action for all businesses involved in print, calling it an opportunity to put female leaders front and centre and celebrate their achievements.
