Happy Women’s Day to all the female warriors out there! To the stay-at-home moms, the boss babes, and the environmental warriors – we see you! Every year on March 8, the world celebrates Women’s Day. This special celebration promotes women’s rights and acknowledges womens’ achievements across political, economic, social, and cultural sectors. Not sure what Women’s Day is? Let’s take a look.
International Women’s Day isn’t anything new. Its origins can be traced to many different socialist movements in the early twentieth century. The United Nations adopted this day in 1977, and thanks to the third and fourth waves of feminism, this day acts as a reminder of the grit and strength of women across the world.
The UN has adopted a different theme to celebrate each Women’s day in the last couple of years. The different themes are based on current women’s rights and related issues. The UN theme for Women’s Day 2022 is “Gender equality today for a sustainable tomorrow.”
