'''International Women's Day, or in Malagasy Andron'ny vehivavy, meaning Women's Day, is celebrated throughout Madagascar. Below are images of the event on 8th March 2019 in Sambava where a walk began at 8am in the north part of the city, going south until reaching the central stadium. Celebrations thereafter spread throughout the town, along the beach and in bars and restaurant where partying continues throughout the day and early morning hours.'''

Groups of women representing Andapa, Vohemar, Antalaha and of course Sambava itself paraded, or rather danced their ways through town as if partying for their rights! If the event falls on a work day, most women will get the day off while men usually go to work.
