International Women's Day Quiz

March 8th marks the celebration of International Women's Day, a global event honoring the achievements, struggles, and triumphs of women worldwide. It's a day to reflect on the progress made for women's rights, acknowledge the work still left to do, and celebrate the powerful women who've shaped history.

Now, you might be wondering: how much do I really know about the significant figures and moments that have defined the women's rights movement? Or even more specifically, can I score well on an International Women's Day quiz? Well, you're in exactly the right place.

This quiz is designed to challenge your knowledge of women's contributions across a variety of fields—whether you're a history buff, an advocate for gender equality, or someone who just loves a fun trivia challenge. Some questions will test your knowledge of iconic trailblazers, while others will dig into some lesser-known facts that might surprise you. Either way, you're bound to learn something new!

What is International Women's Day?

International Women's Day is a global celebration of the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. It's also a call to action for accelerating gender equality. The day was first observed in the early 1900s, and it has since evolved into a worldwide movement.

When did International Women's Day start?

The first official International Women's Day was celebrated on March 8, 1911. However, its roots trace back to labor movements in Europe and North America in the early 20th century, where women fought for better working conditions, equal pay, and the right to vote.

Why March 8th?

March 8th was chosen for its historical significance: on this day in 1917, women in Russia went on strike, marking the beginning of the Russian Revolution. It's a powerful reminder of how women have always been at the forefront of social change.

Is International Women's Day celebrated globally?

Yes, International Women's Day is recognized and celebrated in countries all over the world, though the way it's observed can differ. Some nations host marches, conferences, and protests, while others focus on community events and educational campaigns.

What's the theme of International Women's Day?

Each year, there's a different theme that highlights a particular area of focus. For example, the 2024 theme is "Choose to Challenge", encouraging individuals to challenge gender bias and inequality. Themes can be empowering, thought-provoking, and meant to bring attention to different aspects of gender equality. For 2025, the theme is "Accelerate Action".

Why take this quiz?

If you've been wanting to learn more about the women who've made history, this quiz is a perfect way to put that knowledge to the test. Sure, you know the major players—think Rosa Parks, Marie Curie, and Malala Yousafzai—but can you recall the first female astronaut or the leader of the suffragist movement in the United States?

Besides being a fun distraction, this quiz will help you better understand the lasting impact of women's contributions across fields such as politics, science, and the arts. It'll also shed light on lesser-known facts, giving you a fresh perspective on women's history.
