Observed annually on October 11, International Day of the Girl acknowledges the fundamental human right of every girl to succeed. It is not only a day to raise awareness of the gender inequalities and challenges faced by girls, but also a day of celebration – of girls’ rights, their achievements, and a future where they can thrive without the limitations of today.

Cummins Inc. recognized the day through its ongoing commitment to Cummins Powers Women, a global community program to find solutions to gender inequality in communities, reinforcing Cummins’ commitment to the advancement of women everywhere.

This year, Cummins supported the Digital Generation initiative, which aims to bridge the digital divide and empower girls and women worldwide. Employee resource and gender focused groups, nonprofit partners, and employees around the world demonstrated Cummins’ core value of inclusion by highlighting digital inclusion through global celebrations featuring:  

  • Over 45 global discussions, events, and programs in seven regions focused on digital inclusion, education, and resources, inspiring employees to make an impact in their own communities.
  • Employees across Africa, China and North America participating in interactive demonstrations and events about robotics, digital literacy, 3-D printing, virtual reality technologies, and much more.
  • Workshops and panel discussions focused on cybersecurity to build awareness and understanding of online safety and engagement.
  • Local students across Europe, Hispanic America, and North America met with Cummins employees to learn about their career journeys and participate in activities and panel discussions aimed at inspiring and encouraging children to consider careers in STEM.

Cummins is committed to accelerating the advancement and prosperity of women and girls around the world. The digital divide is an important issue, and Cummins will continue to invest in a future where every girl has the opportunity to succeed in the digital age.
