A statement from the IWDE organising committee reads: “From the rise of fascism to attacks on women’s bodily autonomy, 2025 has already given us enough reason to take to the streets. We are inviting feminists of all genders to join us on March 8 for the 2025 International Women’s Day March as we join women all over the world to have our voices heard!”
