International Women's Day 2024: International Women's Day, celebrated globally on March 8th, is a appreciation of the achievements made in gender equality and women's rights, as well as a call to action against the ongoing challenges faced by women worldwide. This day serves to recognise the achievements of women across various fields, while also shedding light on the persisting barriers and injustices they encounter.
Established by the Socialist Party of America on February 28, 1909, as National Women's Day in New York, its objectives have since expanded to encompass promoting gender equity and empowering women in social, economic, cultural, and political spheres.
International Women's Day underscores the importance of equal participation and opportunities for all individuals, striving towards a society where the rights of women are safeguarded and respected in every aspect of life.
