Social media creators are a fascinating and varied bunch. From the latest book club recommendation to sustainable style ideas - not to mention make-up tips, solo travel guidance, and the latest talking points on the most viral moments - the internet is filled to the brim with opinionated entertainers.
With that in mind, and in celebration of International Women's Day on March 8, social meda app TikTok is set to celebrate their global community of female creators with the hashtag #WomenofTikTok.
Speaking on the initiative, Rebecca O'Keeffe, Partnerships Manager at the Irish branch said:
"For 2024, TikTok is celebrating International Women's Day by working closely with some of Ireland's top creators to highlight the amazing women who inspire and encourage diversity every day."
