Honoring History, Empowering Progress: International Women's Day 2024
On the 8th day of March, it is the day when all over the world gather to commemorate International Women's Day (IWD). The day's purpose is to recognize the accomplishments made by women, to consider the obstacles that they confront, and pledge for us to ensure equality reigns supreme. It wasn't an occasion that had a dramatic effect on the world. It's the culmination of a lot of hard work, determination and unshakeable dedication. IWD is a day of celebration encouraging participants to go on a trip into the history and past of IWD which is a proof that this force remains in collective action for all people.
Beginning by planting Seeds of Change to a Global Movement
The seeds of IWD were sown towards the start of the 20th century. It was during this time that women's rights grew in strength. The 8th day of March in 1857, a group of women took to the streets to protest the poor working conditions of their employers, as well as to women's lack of rights when it came to trading garments. They demanded a reduction of working hours, in addition to a decent and decent living wage. On the 8th day of March, marches of women who worked in the needle trades were held in protest at the use of children in child labor as well as the working conditions at sweatshops, and make sure that women were able to vote. In 1910, the 8th March was the day that marked celebration of International Women's Day.
A Catalyst for Change
In the course of in the 20th century IWD was a key factor in the transformation of society. It provided a platform where women could voice their opinions on topics such as the right to vote as well as fair wages for workers as well as education rights. It was in 1975 that IWD became recognized as an issue of human rights when IWD. United Nations officially recognized IWD and acknowledged the importance of IWD.
A Day of Celebration and Action
Today, IWD is celebrated in various ways, from spectacular parades and intimate events. It's an opportunity to celebrate the best women in every field, ranging from musicians, scientists and activists to entrepreneurs and business owners. However, IWD isn't only an occasion to be celebrated and honored but also an opportunity to get involved. It's a reminder to remember that the fight for gender equality will never end. It's vital to keep working to ensure equal opportunity, and eliminate stereotypes of women and all women everywhere. The central theme of International Women's Day 2024 is " Invest in Women and Accelerating Progress" through the hashtag #InvestInWomen.
As per the UN five components are essential to continue with this hashtag until it becomes outdated
