World Calendar Day

Dia de la Mujer

National holiday since 2024. The marches through Santiago are among the largest in Latin America, filling the Alameda from La Moneda to Baquedano with green scarves and fierce conviction. Chilean feminism has its own voice and it does not ask permission.

Regional/Cultural Day

Na Marama Ni Viti

International Women's Day with a Fijian twist. The women of the village run everything behind the scenes, from the finances to the feast planning to the decisions that the men think they made. Today the women rest, or try to. The grog bowl is served by women. The lovo is prepared by women. The village stands because the women hold it up.
