They began having annual themes for the day in 1996. This year\u2019s theme stems from how women are more vulnerable to the impacts of climate change compared to men. A key reason for this trend is that women make up the majority of the world\u2019s lower class and are more dependent on natural resources, which are threatened the most by climate change.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The UN wants to empower women to have a voice and be active in making decisions relating to climate change because a sustainable future is not possible without gender equality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>How Did International Women\u2019s Day Begin?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fight for women\u2019s rights began in February 1908 in New York City. Women were becoming more vocal and active in going against gender inequality. There were 15,000 women who marched throughout New York City campaigning for shorter working hours, better pay, and equal voting rights.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 1909, the Socialist Party of America celebrated the first National Woman\u2019s Day on February 28th. National Woman\u2019s Day was celebrated on the last Sunday of February until 1913.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 1910, a leader of the Women\u2019s Office for the Social Democratic Party in Germany named Clara Zetkin suggested the idea of an International Women\u2019s Day where women every year in every country should advocate for women\u2019s rights and share their demands.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first International Women\u2019s Day was held for the first time in Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Switzerland on March 19, 1911.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Finally, in 1913, there was an agreement for International Women\u2019s Day to officially take place on March 8th to be in line with Russian women who celebrated the day on the Gregorian calendar&#8217;s February 23rd.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Russia had one of the most notorious International Women\u2019s Day despite it not being their first. On February 23 1917, the equivalent to our March 8th, Russian women held a protest that directly led to gaining the right to vote. Many other countries looked to Russia as an example of what women could change for themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>#BreakTheBias<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2001, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.internationalwomensday.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the International Women\u2019s Day website<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was launched to help with organizing the day by creating annual themes, campaigns, and events. For 2022, the theme is #BreakTheBias. This theme calls for people to imagine a world without stereotypes and bias to create a diverse world where differences are valued and celebrated. This way, we can move forward towards women\u2019s equality.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On social media, the hashtags being used are #BreakTheBias and #IWD2022. Alongside these <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hashtags are people posing by crossing their arms to symbolize an \u201cx\u201d in solidarity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>What To Do For International Women\u2019s Day<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bias makes it harder for women to move ahead and gain gender equality. So to follow the theme of this International Women\u2019s Day, learn to address any deliberate or unconscious bias you have and actively call out gender bias, discrimination, and stereotyping when you see it to fuel gender equality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The International Women\u2019s Day website also lists out events for all around the world that people can participate in such as the \u201cCelebrating Arts &amp; Women in Tech Live VR\u201d in New York or the \u201cDiversity-Equity-Inclusion\u201d event in Hellerup, Denmark.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also wear the colors of International Women\u2019s Day! Traditionally, purple is worn on this day. Green and white are also considered the colors of International Women\u2019s Day due to the roots these colors have in the United Kingdom\u2019s Women\u2019s Social and Political Union.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regardless of it being International Women\u2019s Day, make sure to work on your gender biases and advocate for a sustainable future with gender equality!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-33495 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/nstem.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/woman-300x235.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"235\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nstem.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/woman-300x235.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nstem.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/woman-500x392.jpg 500w, https:\/\/nstem.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/woman-24x19.jpg 24w, https:\/\/nstem.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/woman-36x28.jpg 36w, https:\/\/nstem.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/woman-48x38.jpg 48w, https:\/\/nstem.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/woman.jpg 553w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.internationalwomensday.com\/Theme\">Image credit<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Citations:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Haynes, S.
