每年的3月8日定為國際婦女節(jié)，也稱國際勞動婦女節(jié)，這是一個全世界女性的共同節(jié)日。不同的國家和地區(qū)有不同的慶祝方式，但目標都是一樣的，都是為了嘉獎女性對經濟、政治和社會所作出的貢獻。我國于1922年開始紀念"三八"節(jié)。中國婦女第一次群眾性的紀念"三八"節(jié)活動是1924年在廣州舉行的。1949年12月，中央人民政府政務院規(guī)定每年的3月8日為婦女節(jié)。隨著社會的開放和進步，女性在各個領域都發(fā)揮著越來越重要的作用，我們隨處可見女性的巨大成就。因此，這不僅是一個保護婦女權益的節(jié)日，也是一個表揚女性突出貢獻的節(jié)日。
