A record of 119 exchanges and central counterparty clearing houses (CCPs) around the world will support the eighth annual 'Ring the Bell for Gender Equality' campaign, to raise awareness about the role and opportunities for the private sector to advance gender equality and women’s empowerment in the workplace, marketplace and community. For the eighth consecutive year, markets in 98 countries are planning to ring opening or closing bells to celebrate International Women’s Day 2022 – starting on 4 March and continuing until the end of the month of March. UN Women’s theme for International Women’s Day 2022, “Gender equality today for a sustainable tomorrow”, recognizes women’s leadership of and contribution to climate change adaptation, mitigation, and response, to build a more sustainable future for all.
