About International Women’s Day
International Women’s Day (IWD) is a global day observed annually on
March 8, celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political
achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for advancing
gender equality. IWD has been around for over a century, with the first IWD
marked in 1911.
