Happy International Women’s Day!
International Women’s Day is celebrated each year, on March 8. Today is the 100th anniversary of International Women’s Day.
On this day, thousands of events occur around the world. Countries, organizations and local/regional groups are free to develop specific themes each year to celebrate and promote women.
For example, this year’s UN theme for International Women’s Day is “Equal access to education, training and science and technology: Pathway to decent work for women.” Given all that is going on around the world right now, that seems like a pretty good choice to us.
