International Women’s Day (IWD) is a global event that takes place every year on 8th March. It is the occasion to reflect on the progress made in women’s rights and celebrate the achievements of women all over the world. It was first observed in New York in 1908, when 15,000 people marched through New York city. They campaigned for shorter working hours, better working conditions and better pay. Later, on 8th March, 1911, in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland, more than one million women and men came together to support women’s rights. They demanded that women should be allowed to vote, hold public office and get proper training for jobs. The United Nations decided to officially celebrate IWD in 1975 and it has included an official theme for International Women’s Day since 1996. For 2022, the UN given theme is “Gender equality today for a sustainable tomorrow”, which aims to recognize women who are working to build a more sustainable future. A lot of special events take place all over the world to celebrate IWD. There are exhibitions, theatre shows, talks, discussions, workshops, fun runs and so much more. All the events are designed to celebrate the role of women in society and to make us all think about the changes that still need to take place to ensure the world is a fair and equal place for all its citizens.
