Why is Women’s Day commemorated?


International Women’s Day has its roots in the labor movement of the mid-19th century, a time of great expansion and turbulence in the industrialized world, when women increasingly began to raise their voices.

At the Second World Socialist Women’s Meeting, Clara Seltkin proposes the institutionalization of International Women’s Day. The women gathered unanimously approve the proposal and choose March 8 for the celebration in recognition of the women workers who died in the workers’ movement of the “Cotton Textile Factory”, which occurred 53 years earlier.
A year later, the first International Women’s Day was celebrated on March 19, 1911, gathering more than one million people in Germany, Austria, Denmark and Switzerland.
In addition to the right to vote and to hold public office, demands were made for women’s right to work, vocational training and non-discrimination in the workplace.

This sector, which provides 25% of the country’s formal rural employment for women, has been characterized over the years for recognizing the integral development of women as a fundamental element of its activities, working to close gender gaps and implementing four components that contribute significantly to their development and that of their families, namely education, housing, health and welfare.
They are the fundamental basis for education in the home and for the promotion of respect, equality and equity, the cornerstones of the sustainable economic, social and environmental development that is so much in demand in today’s world.
