womaN's Day

8 March

The first IWD was observed on 19 March 1911 in Germany following a declaration by the Socialist Party of America. The idea of having an international women's day was first put forward at the turn of the 20th century amid rapid world industrialization and economic expansion that led to protests over working conditions

In 1910, Second International held the first international women's conference in Copenhagen (in the labour-movement building located at Jagtvej 69, which until 1 March 2007 housed Ungdomshuset). An 'International Women's Day' was established. It was suggested by the important German Socialist Clara Zetkin, although no date was specified.[2] The following year, 1911, IWD was marked by over a million people in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland, on March 19.[3] In the West, International Women's Day was first observed as a popular event after 1977 when the United Nations General Assembly invited member states to proclaim March 8 as the UN Day for Women's Rights and International Peace


Demonstrations marking International Women's Day in Russia proved to be the first stage of the Russian Revolution of 1917

Following the October Revolution, the Bolshevik Alexandra Kollontai persuaded Lenin to make it an official holiday in the Soviet Union, and it was established, but was a working day until 1965. On May 8, 1965 by the decree of the USSR Presidium of the Supreme Soviet  International Women's Day was declared a non working day in the USSR "in commemoration of the outstanding merits of Soviet women in communistic construction, in the defense of their Fatherland during the Great Patriotic War, in their heroism and selflessness at the front and in the rear, and also marking the great contribution of women to strengthening friendship between peoples, and the struggle for peace. But still, women's day must be celebrated as are other holidays

 hari wanita sedunia essensinya adalah Pemberdayaan Wanita tanpa mengingkari fitrahnya & menjunjung tinggi nilai-nilai religiusitas.....

bagaimana orang lain menghargai tanggung jawab wanita yang sesungguhnya, tidak lupa dengan kewajibannya beserta hak nya sebagai wanita.

wanita sebagai ibu

wanita sebagai anak

wanita sebagai pendidik

wanita sebagai tiang negara

wanita sebagai orang yang dimuliakan agama

& diperlakukan secara normal layaknya manusia.

tanpa mengurangi nilai essensi hari wanita tak pula layak wanita menganut paham feminis kesetaraan gender yang berakibat akan pengingkaran fitrahnya.
