Slovenia marking International Women’s Day today.
A number of events are planned, including a rally in Ljubljana.
The rally will call for a decent minimum wage as well as for the teaching of gender stereotypes at school.
They will also call for parties to field female candidates for the elections next month.
The day was first marked in 1911 in Austria, Germany, Switzerland and Denmark, but on different days. The same year it was marked in the Slovenian city of Trbovlje.
