March 8 is International Women's Day—a global day that celebrates the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. The day also marks a "call to action" to increase gender equality—where women and men are considered, valued, and favoured equally—to eliminate gender discrimination, and to raise awareness of the issues and challenges women in our society continue to face today.
