International Women's Day
Every year on March 8, the world celebrates International Women's Day, an occasion to reflect on the achievements, progress and challenges faced by women around the world. This day commemorates the fight for women's rights, their role in society and their lasting impact on every aspect of life.
The history of this day dates back to the women's movement for gender rights and equality in the 19th and 20th centuries.
It was born from the struggles of female workers who demanded better working conditions, trade union rights and the right to vote. Over the years, this celebration has become a significant time to reflect on the progress made and to reaffirm the commitment to gender equality around the world.
International Women's Day is not only a day of celebration, but also a time to recognize the challenges women continue to face. Despite considerable progress, many women around the world still struggle with discrimination, gender-based violence, economic inequality and limited access to education and employment opportunities.
