International Women's Day Hub

SSRN’s International Women’s Day Special Topic Hub provides a curated view into early-stage research addressing the pivotal role women play in our world and the work that remains to achieve gender equality. Observed annually on March 8th, International Women’s Day (IWD) recognizes the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women as well as actions needed to create a gender equal world. This special topic hub presents insights from many disciplines that may inform the ongoing conversation on advancing women worldwide and creating an inclusive world.

SSRN, Elsevier’s world-leading preprint platform devoted to the rapid worldwide dissemination of early-stage research, is committed to advancing societal progress through quality knowledge and education. The research in this hub is curated from our Women's & Gender Studies Research Network (WGSRN). Research on SSRN is free to download and upload.

It is important to note that many of these papers are preprints and have not been edited or benefited from the pivotal role of peer-review, which validates and improves the quality of final published journal articles.
