International Day of Rural Women HistoryInternational Day of Rural Women recognizes and celebrates the significant role of women in agriculture, food security and poverty reduction in rural areas. This day's purpose is to highlight the unique challenges rural women face, such as lack of access to resources and opportunities, as well as the need to support their full participation and equal opportunities in rural development. International Day of Rural Women also pays tribute to the invaluable contributions of rural women in maintaining and improving their communities' health, education, and social well-being. The United Nations General Assembly established International Day of Rural Women in 2007, and it has since been celebrated annually across the globe. This day brings attention to the vital role of rural women in farming and supporting local economies in Canada, where rural women have long played an essential role in agricultural production, indigenous knowledge, and community development. The observance also highlights the need to address existing challenges, such as gender inequality and limited access to resources, to support rural women's empowerment and sustainable development in Canada. In Canada, International Day of Rural Women is observed through various activities and campaigns aimed at raising awareness and promoting gender equality in rural settings. Communities, organizations, and individuals across the country participate in events such as educational forums, workshops, and seminars focused on empowering rural women and advocating for their rights and needs. The Government of Canada also acknowledges the importance of supporting rural women and fostering their full participation in the country's development. International Day of Rural Women occurs annually on October 15th. International Day of Rural Women facts
