Time for Male Allyship on International Allyship Day

International Allyship Day is on the 8th of August
The second ever International Allyship day is on the 8th of August, and with a world in transition and divisions widening, there couldn't be a more important message of unity to deliver than the message of allyship.

International Allyship Day is a holiday founded in 2023 to celebrate the incredible strength in unity. It is a day to embrace diversity, celebrate differences, and foster a sense of belonging for everyone!

This holiday encourages communities to show up authentically and work together to create positive social change. Networking, workshops, events, and community gatherings can achieve engagement, inspiration, and connection to advocate for others in the workplace and at home.

Multiple national studies indicate that four out of five US-based employees are familiar with or have participated in unconscious bias training. This training, while being extremely valuable, is only the beginning. International Allyship Day exists to enforce and encourage the practice of allyship. Awareness without action does not move the needle. Active and genuine allyship is about consistency and continuously taking action despite biases to treat all others equally and equitably.

This holiday highlights now as the time to tackle equity, as we can all challenge gender stereotypes, call out discrimination, draw attention to devaluing behaviors, and create inclusive environments.

With recent reports of the rise of misogyny across a range of nations, there is a necessity for male allies [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Male_ally] to stand up, role model male allyship [https://maleally.com], and bring other men on the journey of partnering with women for change.

When it comes to observing the day, these are things to consider:

* Educate
On International Allyship Day, why not read up and share some resources with those in your social circles? You can plan an event to discuss allyship and how to apply it to your community. Or take an allyship assessment to see where you are on the allyship continuum and what you can do to be a better ally to others.

* Activate
In celebration of this holiday, we recommend having an honest conversation with a member of an underrepresented community, discussing their experiences and what can improve them. You can even ask what you specifically can do to be a better ally for them.

* Celebrate
Allyship is not a project with a start and finish. It's a process, a journey. Consider the progress your organization has made and celebrate the practice of allyship and those individuals who "walk the talk" to make their work and home environments more equitable. Bring your teams together and commit to continuing the work.
