Women's day

International Women's Day is celebrates the world over, every year on the eight day of March.  It celebrates womanhood and pays tribute to the indomitable spirit of women across the globe.

 It's root lies in the early 1900s when oppression and inequality was spurring women to become more vocal and active in campaigning for change. The first National Woman's Day was more or less a political event, observed across the United States on 28 February. It was the initiative of Socialist Party of America.

Annually on 8 March, thousands of events are held throughout the world to inspire women and celebrate their achievements. A global network of rich and diverse local activity connects women from all around the world ranging from political rallies, business conferences, government activities and networking events through to local women's craft markets, theatric performances, fashion parades and more.
