As of 2022, there were a little over 3.9 billion women worldwide. This accounts for about 50% of the world population and is believed to be increasing steadily. Despite accounting for at least half of the world, women are still not regarded as competent members of society in many cultures. The source of this bias is still unknown, although there are many theories. However, with the inception of women's rights movements and similar campaigns, bias against women is slowly fading.

Today, a whole day is globally dedicated to celebrating women of all professions, races, and ages. Celebrated on March 8th every year, the primary purpose of honoring international women's Day is to recognize women's political, social, cultural, and economic achievements worldwide. Alongside celebrating women all over the world, International women's Day is also an avenue for groups to come together and review matters like gender equality, reproductive rights, violence and abuse against women, and women's rights.

Here at Aseel, we are taking the celebrations to the next level by showcasing some of our exquisite handmade women's products that would make perfect gifts for the women in your life.
