International Day of Rural Women is observed worldwide on October 15 each year. Established by the UN General Assembly in 2007, the first events related to this observance took place in 2008. The day highlights the significant role women play in the development of their countries, particularly in the agricultural economy of rural regions, where they are involved in activities such as crop cultivation and cattle breeding. However, rural women often face challenges, including limited access to healthcare, education, and credit, which hampers their ability to contribute to economic growth. The UN General Assembly encourages member states to organize events that celebrate and recognize the contributions of rural women to enhance rural and agricultural development.
