"Celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievement of women.
Yet let's also be aware progress has slowed in many places across the world, so urgent action is needed to accelerate gender parity." - International Women's Day Official website
Celebrate the day by attending events and activities, or, you can take action by making a pledge for parity.
