International Women's Day: Celebrating Women's Achievements and Seeking Gender Equality
International Women's Day 2024
Mark your calendars for March 8!
International Women's Day (IWD), celebrated on March 8 every year, is a global day dedicated to honoring the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women around the world. This year, IWD 2024 will be celebrated under the theme "Invest in Women."
The United Nations encourages everyone to participate in celebrating IWD by investing in women's empowerment. By supporting women's education, health, and economic opportunities, we can create a more gender-equal society for all.
For over a century, women on all continents have come together on IWD to celebrate their achievements and advocate for gender equality. Despite progress made in recent years, gender inequality and discrimination still persist worldwide.
IWD serves as a reminder of the importance of continuing to work towards a more equitable and inclusive world for women and girls. By investing in women, we invest in a better future for all.
