Twitter has been at the epicenter of powerful public conversations, and women's movements have been a part of that. For instance, in the first few months of 2020 there was an 87% growth in conversations in India to do with women's day and women's empowerment when compared to the same months in 2019 (Jan 1 - Feb 25).
Globally, there have been 125 million Tweets about feminism and equality over the past three years. Conversations are closely tied to International Women's Day, as Twitter has seen a spike in Tweet volume over the past three years on and immediately surrounding March 8th. To celebrate the day this year, Twitter has launched a special emoji that is activated with the hashtags.
