On April 26, 2018, thousands of groups and individuals around the globe will :

We provide several options for film screenings, including the flagship film that started this movement, 50/50: Rethinking the Past, Present, and Future of Women + Power (20 mins), a new 5 minute film that will premiere on 50/50 Day, as well as curated films and materials from partners.
2. Commit to Action Pledges. These pledges will be announced in advance of 50/50 Day, and events will use the day as an opportunity to discuss how they will meet that pledge. Individuals are also encouraged to pledge on their own.
