With International Women's Day approaching on March 8th, I'm curious to know if any specific activities are planned within your organizations throughout the week?

Who within your organization is typically responsible for organizing such initiatives? Is it the Human Resources department, Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), or another team?

No specific activities are planned in my organization as far as I know. I think that formal communication with some best wishes e-cards is all that will be sent.
