Today, we celebrate International Women’s Day, honoring the strength, resilience, and achievements of women worldwide???? This day holds a rich history, dating back to early 20th-century labor movements in North America and Europe. The first National Woman’s Day in the U.S. was held in 1909, following a garment workers' strike in 1908. The movement’s roots, however, go back to 1848 when Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott organized the Seneca Falls Convention, demanding women’s civil, social, and political rights. Now celebrated globally on March 8, International Women’s Day symbolizes progress and equality. Officially recognized by the United Nations in 1977, it unites women worldwide, highlighting their achievements and promoting greater participation in political and economic life. We are inspired by the women who lead, innovate, and make a difference every day in our workplaces, communities, and beyond. Let’s continue to champion equity, inclusion, and opportunity for all.
