It’s International Women’s Day today, it is a holiday established on March 8 every year to celebrate the important contributions and great achievements of women in the economic, political and social spheres.
The focus of the celebration varies from region to region, because the holiday began as a political event initiated by socialist feminists, the holiday has blended with the cultures of numerous countries, primarily in socialist countries.
International Women’s Day is a holiday that is celebrated in many countries around the world. It is a day when the achievements made by women are recognized, regardless of their nationality, ethnicity, language, culture, economic status, and political stance. Since its inception, International Women’s Day has opened up a new world for women in both developed and developing countries. The growing international women’s movement has been strengthened by four UN global conferences on women, and the commemoration of International Women’s Day has become a rallying cry for women’s rights and women’s participation in political and economic affairs.
At this point I would like to say “Happy Women’s Day!” to all the women who have dedicated themselves to sewing, embroidering and quilting!
