International Women's Day in Taiwan

International Women's Day (IWD), celebrated on March 8th, is a global day recognizing the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity.

History

Taiwan has been observing International Women's Day since the early 20th century when it was first established by the Socialist Party of America and later adopted by the United Nations in 1975. Over the years, Taiwan has seen significant progress in women's rights and gender equality, influenced by global movements and its own cultural shifts.

Traditions and Activities

  • Educational Events: Seminars and workshops are organized by educational institutions and NGOs to raise awareness about women's rights and gender-related issues.

  • Public Rallies: Advocacy groups often hold rallies or marches to campaign for specific causes such as workplace equality or against gender-based violence.

  • Awards and Recognitions: The government or private organizations may give awards to outstanding women who have made significant contributions to Taiwanese society.

  • Cultural Performances: Art exhibitions, film screenings, and theatrical performances celebrating women's achievements might take place throughout Taiwan.
