Today Is International Womens Day

[CLICK: Tribute To Ghanaian Women] TODAY is being celebrated worldwide as International Womens Day (IWD)-- a day when the world pauses to celebrate the achievement of women in all spheres of life, and for some countries to push for legislation to improve the status of women.

The idea of an International Women’s Day first arose in the early 1900s, growing out of the centuries-old struggle of women for equality and justice. This UN-ratified day is now celebrated by women worldwide.
