International Women's Day
This is a past event
"Gender equality and women’s empowerment are fundamental to the global mission of the United Nations to achieve equal rights and dignity for all...

Until women and girls are liberated from poverty and injustice, all our goals -- peace, security, sustainable development -- stand in jeopardy." Secretary General Ban Ki-moon
