International Women’s Day
International Women’s Day
International Women’s Day has been around since the early 1900s, starting as a way for women to fight for equal rights and be heard. Now, it’s grown into a global celebration, with tons of events that bring to light the challenges women still face, while also celebrating everything they’ve achieved. Every year, there’s a new theme to inspire change and keep the conversation going about how we can all make the world a more equal place.
Did you know that, on average, women earn about 24% less than men? And unfortunately, one in three women worldwide will experience violence in their lifetime, often from someone they know. How International Women’s Day is celebrated can vary across the globe-some countries have it as a public holiday, while others mix it with Mother’s Day. But no matter how it’s marked, it’s all about recognising women, celebrating their achievements, and pushing for the change they deserve. You in?
