On 8th March it was International Women's Day. In Maceio there was a big procession. Women and girls of all ages came together to celebrate all the good things about being a woman. There were also some men and boys celebrating too in the procession.
The women were celebrating all the things they can do. They were celebrating all the things that they do to make positive change happen in the world. There were women from many different charities, as well as scientists, doctors, politicians, singers, and many more. There were women of all different ages, from elderly to very young. There were rich women there as well as women who don't have much money. There were women from many different races too.
They were all there to celebrate, but they also were remembering all the women in the world who are not treated fairly.
Who are the important women in your life? Why are they special? Which women do you look up to - who inspires you and why? What can we learn from these women? What can we do to be more like them?
Why do we need to have an International Women's Day? What happens to those women who are not treated fairly? - What kind of challenges do they face?
