Women’s Day was first celebrated in New York on February 28, 1909, but as the women’s movement picked up steam, March 8 was set as a celebration date. And in 1975 it was recognized as a global holiday by the United Nations. While the UN has dubbed this year’s theme “Time is Now: Rural and urban activists transforming women’s lives,” the International Women’s Day organization is promoting “Press for Progress.”
This year’s campaign calls for us to press forward and do what we can to close the gender parity ratio. With that in mind, we’ve rounded up a few great products that support other women.
