On 15 March 2025, the EOC hosted a multicultural event to mark International Women’s Day 2025. Titled “Empowering Women: Health, Rights and Wellbeing”, the event brought together female leaders from diverse non-ethnic Chinese communities to address the unique challenges faced by women from different ethnic and cultural background, while raising awareness of their rights under the anti-discrimination legislations. EOC Member Dr Teresa Cunanan delivered opening remarks at the event.

During the panel discussion, three female leaders from the public sector, media, and STEM shared their experiences and insights on fostering inclusion and driving innovation in their fields. In addition, the event featured a special workshop on women’s health, along with laughter yoga and mandala colouring sessions, to promote the wellbeing of participants.
