International Women’s Day

International Women’s Day is observed on March 8 each year and celebrates the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. It also serves as a call to action for accelerating gender parity and promoting women’s rights worldwide. The day is marked by various events, including rallies, discussions, and performances, aimed at raising awareness of issues such as gender inequality, violence against women, and discrimination. International Women’s Day has its roots in the early 20th century labor movements in North America and Europe and has grown into a global day of recognition and activism.
