About International Women’s Day
For more than a hundred years, International Women's Day has been celebrated on March 8. Thousands of events occur in more than one hundred countries throughout March to mark the economic, political and social achievements of women.
Organizations, governments, charities, unions and women's groups around the world choose different themes each year that reflect global and local gender issues.
