On March 8th, the world observes International Women’s Day, a global occasion dedicated to acknowledging and honoring the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women and girls. It serves as a platform to raise awareness about the advancements made towards gender equality while highlighting the persistent challenges that remain.
The origins of International Women’s Day can be traced back to the early 20th century, stemming from the efforts of labor movements in North America and Europe. It emerged as a response to the growing demand for women’s equal participation in society. Initially celebrated on March 19, 1911, in Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Switzerland, the day saw massive public support with over a million women and men attending various events. Over time, other nations adopted the tradition, leading to its recognition by the United Nations in 1975 as International Women’s Year, subsequently marking March 8th as International Women’s Day.
