Girls Who Print has announced details of its annual initiative which celebrates the careers of women in print and its associated industries
Girls Who Print, one of the print industry’s largest network for women, has announced details of the 2026 ‘Print HERstory Month’ events and its International Women’s Day Conference.
March will mark the return of Print HERstory Month, an annual initiative hosted by Girls Who Print that takes place throughout the month in conjunction with Women’s History Month.
The free virtual event will bring together women from across the industry to explore career growth, leadership, and the moments that shape professional paths in print and graphic communications. Attendees can register once, come and go as they please, and receive replays delivered to their inbox.
As part of Print HERstory Month, Girls Who Print will host its eighth annual International Women’s Day Conference on March 6th, 2026, from 8am to 3pm Eastern Time (1pm to 8pm GMT). Submissions to participate in Print HERstory Month will close on March 1st, 2026.
This year’s Print HERstory Month will also align with the United Nations (UN) International Women’s Day guiding principle – ‘Rights. Justice. Action.’
Girls Who Print will apply the UN framework through its International Women’s Day Conference theme – ‘Make Your Move,’ promoting it within a Print HERstory Month Q&A which will encourage reflection on action, progress, and next steps in print careers.
Women in print worldwide have also been invited to share their stories and help amplify the voices of others by engaging with and resharing posts using the #PrintHERstoryMonth hashtag throughout March.
In 2025, Print HERstory Month generated nearly 300,000 global impressions through shared stories and social engagement using #PrintHERstoryMonth.
Deborah Corn, executive director of Girls Who Print, says: “Print HERstory Month is about action and visibility.
“When women step forward and share their stories, they make their work, leadership, and expertise visible to the industry. That visibility creates momentum, opens doors, and helps more women be seen, heard, and recognised for the impact they are already having in print.”
