8 Martie Fericit! Happy 8th of March!

 International Women's Day
Ziua Internațională a Femeii

"2015: Empowering Women - Empowering Humanity:
Picture It!" 

• "This year’s theme, “Empowering Women - Empowering Humanity: Picture It!" envisions a world where each woman and girl can exercise her choices, such as participating in politics, getting an education, having an income, and living in societies free from violence and discrimination." read for more info on UE Women:(UN Women, the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women.  See more at: http://www.unwomen.org/en/about-us/about-un-women).

• * "În 1908, 15.000 de femei au mărșăluit în New York cerând un program de lucru mai scurt, salarii mai bune și dreptul la vot, iar în 1909, conform unei declarații a Partidului Socialist din America, Ziua Internaționala a Femeii a fost stabilită pe 28 februarie. Un an mai târziu, în 1910, în urma unei Conferințe a Muncitoarelor de la Copenhaga, unde au participat peste 100 de femei din 17 țări, s-a hotărât ca Ziua Femeii să fie sărbătorită în aceiași zi peste tot în lume, data de 8 martie fiind aleasă însă abia în 1913."  Despre: Ziua Internațională a Femeii
• ** "International Women's Day: 
• It is a day to emphasize the feminist struggle for womens rights. In some regions, the day has lost its political charge, and has become simply an occasion for men to express their love for women in a way somewhat similar to a mixture of Mother's Day and Valentine's Day. In other regions, however, the political and human rights theme designated by the United Nations runs strong, and political and social awareness of the struggles of women worldwide are brought out and examined in a hopeful manner. (...) 
... 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 world peace."

In some countries, such as Cameroon, Croatia, Romania, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Bulgaria and Chile, the day is not a public holiday, but is widely observed nonetheless. On this day it is customary for men to give the women in their lives – friends, mothers, wives, girlfriends, daughters, colleagues, etc. – flowers and small gifts. In some countries (such as Bulgaria and Romania) it is also observed as an equivalent of Mother's Day, where children also give small presents to their mothers and grandmothers."
