Women’s rights movements are organized efforts aimed at achieving equal rights and opportunities for women. These movements advocate for issues such as voting rights, workplace equality, reproductive rights, and protection against gender-based violence. Key milestones include the suffrage movement, which fought for women's right to vote, and the second-wave feminism of the 1960s and 1970s, which focused on broader social and cultural inequalities. Throughout history, various organizations and activists have played significant roles in these movements. Notable figures include Susan B. Anthony and Simone de Beauvoir, who inspired many to challenge societal norms. Today, women’s rights movements continue to address ongoing issues, striving for gender equality worldwide.
