International Women's Day is recognized annually on March 8, with events scheduled around the world to call attention to women's issues.
The idea of an International Women's Day was inspired by America's National Women's Day, February 28, 1909, declared by the Socialist Party of America. The next year, the Socialist International met in Denmark and delegates approved the idea of an International Women's Day.
