The movement to create an International Women’s Day began as part of the socialist movement for greater women’s rights, particularly the right to vote. The 1910 International Conference of Socialist Women in Copenhagen proposed an annual international women’s day without choosing a fixed date. March 8 later became associated with women’s protests during the Russian Revolution in 1917. With the resurgence of feminism in the late 1960s, International Women’s Day gained renewed interest as a day to celebrate women’s lives and work.
