International Day of Families
International Day of Families
Family! What comes to your mind when you hear the word? I remember my carefree childhood, fun weekends, and vacations we spent traveling. I also remember the days my parents stayed up with me the whole night when I fell sick and the days of scolding me when I did something I was not supposed to.
For every one of us, the definition and significance of family is different. Some of us are blessed to have grown up in a happy, loving, and caring family, while some of us are not. Today when I am living hundreds of miles away from them, I realise what I had and what I would not give to live those days again.
Every year 15th of May of celebrated as the International Day of Families to raise awareness about the importance of a family in an individual’s life. This day serves as a reminder of how significant the role of a family is in shaping a person to be who they are today by offering necessary guidance, support, and unparalleled love.
In 1993, the United Nations General Assembly established the International Day of Families to raise awareness among the people of family-related issues and to increase the understanding of the social, economic, and demographic factors impacting families.
Since then, the International Day of Families has been celebrated every year with a different theme. This year’s theme for the International Day of Families is ‘Families And Demographic Change’, which will be observed through a variety of programs, events, and activities.
