hundred years ago, during Congress of the Socialist International in Copenhagen, through the proposal of the great political mediator Clara Zetkin, was established International Women's Day . Everyone will know that the day was established to commemorate what happened in the textile factory in New York, where many women were killed in a fire, trapped in the seals placed by the factory owners not to allow the removal of workers by place of work. Not everyone celebrates the centenary this year, since it is not certain the date on which the accident occurred, some agree on the choice of 1908, and celebrated its centenary in 2008, but according to some sources, the incident occurred in 1911.

The situation is one that has been clearly expressed by the expression " If not now, when?", 13 February . The appeal committee, namesake of the event, is once again an invitation to all women to take to the streets with principals, flash mob, marches, meetings.
