Celebrating Women: Telling Our Stories
Women's History Month at Georgia State
Georgia State University centers and departments are marking HERStory during March, designated in the U.S. officially as Women’s History Month, alongside International Women’s Day on March 8.
The month in the United States had its origins when Congress first passed legislation leading to “Women’s History Week” in 1982. Since 1995, U.S. presidents have issued a series of annual proclamations designating March as Women’s History Month, recognizing achievements women have made over the course of American history in a variety of fields.
On the world stage, International Women’s Day on March 8 is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women, while also marking a call to action for accelerating women’s equality.
Events for Women's History Month 2024 will be posted during the Spring 2024 Semester.
