PowHer 2026 – International Day of Women’s Rights

PowHer returns for the third consecutive year. The event will take place on Friday, March 6, 2026, at Espace Léo Ferré from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm.

An educational scavenger hunt

To mark International Women’s Day, the Committee for the Promotion and Protection of Women’s Rights invites you to advance a fundamental cause: women’s rights. Follow this fun and educational journey through the different stages of a woman’s life.

This journey, which can be completed in any order, is punctuated by challenges to overcome, milestones to reach, and victories where each step brings you closer to the finish line. At the end of the journey, a gateway stands, a symbol of achievement, but not a final destination. While significant progress has been made, nothing is ever truly guaranteed when it comes to women’s rights and equality.

Rules of the Game

Objective: Find the password to get on stage and cross the finish line

To start, take a bracelet with the name of a woman who made history.
Participate in the activities along the track to get clues.
Find the password associated with your bracelet.
Get on stage and cross the finish line!

A Unique Scenography

An original scenography based on the theme of sport occupies the entire Léo Ferré space, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the issue of equality between men and women. The finish line, which must be earned, will be an opportunity to participate in a unique collective artwork created by Mr One Teas. This will allow visitors to contribute to the collective effort of this day and leave with a souvenir.

Also, discover a photo exhibition by Sébastien Salamand, aka Le Turk, showcasing Monegasque female athletes. Six sports will be represented: rugby, football, basketball, judo, athletics, and gymnastics.

Eloquence Competition

As in previous years, an oratory competition will take place on the same day, starting at 6:00 p.m. in the National Council chamber. This event will be an opportunity to discover the vision of high school students in the Principality on the theme “A Story of Equality: From Ego to Equals.” The competition will be broadcast live on Monaco Info. Registration is open until February 15, 2026.
