International Women's Day (IWD), originally called International Working Women's Day,
is marked on March
8 every year.[1]
In different regions the focus of the celebrations ranges from general
celebration of respect, appreciation and love towards women to a celebration
for women's economic, political and social achievements. Started as a Socialist
political event, the holiday blended in the culture of many countries,
primarily Eastern Europe, Russia, and the
former Soviet
bloc. In some regions, the day lost its political flavor, and became simply
an occasion for men to express their love for women in a way somewhat similar
to a mixture of Mother's Day and Valentine's
Day. In other regions, however, the original political and human rights
theme designated by the United Nations runs strong, and political and social
awareness of the struggles of women worldwide are brought out and examined in a
hopeful manner.
