International Women’s Day
International Women’s Day has been celebrated every year in March since 1911.
International Women’s Day is a global, or worldwide, holiday to celebrate the many
accomplishments of women. It is a day to remember that all women should unite, or
come together, to continue making the world a better place. The first International
Women’s Day was celebrated in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland. Over
a million people held rallies. They asked the government to allow women the right to
vote, work, and take part in government. Even after women gained the right to vote,
International Women’s Day continued to fight issues of injustice. The day is still
celebrated by remembering and honoring all those who fought for women’s equal
rights. There are still many countries where women are not treated equally or fairly.
This is a day to stand up for women who are unable to do so themselves.

A Cry for Help
“As parents, and as influencers of young people, we want the best for kids. We want them to have positive experiences, healthy relationships and opportunities to learn. We want them to understand right and wrong. We want them to respect others, and respect themselves.We do our best to set a good example, but sometimes, without meaning to, we might say things that excuse disrespectful behaviour in young people. It’s important we understand the cycle of violence. Not all disrespect towards women results in violence. But all violence against women starts with disrespectful behaviour.We can all help stop it at the start.”
When we excuse disrespect it can grow into violence.
