Every year, International Women’s Day falls on March 8th. It’s a global celebration of women’s achievements in economics, culture and politics.
Furthermore, it’s an important occasion to continue the struggle for women’s rights, with inequality still commonplace across the world. International Women’s Day is a public holiday in a number of countries in the world, including Russia and around a dozen former Soviet states. Meanwhile, in China, it is an official holiday but for women only!
