International Women's Day, on 8 March, is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women and campaigning for gender equality. It is marked with marches, conferences, workplace events and campaigns. The United Nations began observing it in 1975, and in 1977 the General Assembly invited member states to proclaim a day for women's rights and international peace. Its colours, purple, green and white, were used by the suffragette movement in Britain in the early twentieth century.
In Russia, Moldova and several other former Soviet countries the day is a public holiday with a festive character, when men give women flowers, especially mimosa and tulips, and small gifts, much like Mother's Day elsewhere. In Italy the day is the Festa della Donna and mimosa is the traditional flower. In many other countries it is a day for demonstrations and for events on equality; in China it is a half day for women. Some groups also use it for strikes or marches.
Everywhere in Russia.
