人們?cè)诿磕?月8日慶祝國(guó)際婦女節(jié)。世界各級(jí)組織用這一天來(lái)表彰女性事業(yè)的發(fā)展，同時(shí)也呼吁大家來(lái)關(guān)注女性和少女所面對(duì)的社會(huì)、政治和經(jīng)濟(jì)問題。在這些問題里，包括了包辦婚姻、性侵犯、貧困和教育的缺乏。

National Women's Day was first celebrated in the United States on February 28th, 1909. The next year, a women's rights leader from Germany suggested the idea of an international celebration.

1909年2月28號(hào)，美國(guó)人第一次在國(guó)內(nèi)慶祝婦女節(jié)。一年后，一位來(lái)自德國(guó)的女權(quán)領(lǐng)袖提出了慶祝國(guó)際婦女節(jié)的想法。

More than 1,000,000 people attended events in Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Switzerland during the first International Women's Day. It took place in 1911.

In 1914, the date for the observance was changed to March 8th in honor of a historic protest for women's rights. 15,000 women marched in New York City on March 8th 1908. They marched to demand better pay, shorter work hours, and the right to vote.

在1914年，為了紀(jì)念具有重大歷史意義的一次女權(quán)抗議運(yùn)動(dòng)，人們把慶祝的日期改到了3月8號(hào)。1908年3月8號(hào)，1萬(wàn)5千名婦女走上了紐約市街頭游行，她們的目的是要求提高工資、縮短工作時(shí)間并獲得選舉權(quán)。
