UN Day celebration invitation and ideas
United Nations theme for 2023 – “International Year of Millets” [Rediscovering an ancient, climate-friendly grain]
Date: October 24, Tuesday
Social Studies Departments and UN student organizations in elementary, secondary, and tertiary schools across the country are expected to hold activities in connection to this theme.
This may include essay writing, poster-making, and jingle-making competitions.
Here are some ideas for celebrating #UNDay, alone or with others:
1. Do you live in a country that is not your native one? Then, you can wear your national costume!
2. Not a fan of public displays? You can simply go about your day being tolerant, curious towards other cultures, and open-minded.
3. Discuss the importance of cultural diversity with your colleagues at work or with your family at home.
4. Post about this day on social media together with your thoughts on international cooperation and other related matters.
5. Check out if there are any cultural activities taking place in your area and attend one.
6. Organise an international dinner to explore the traditional dishes of other cultures.
7. Offer voluntary work to organisations working for humanitarian aid, like Translators Without Borders.
8. Recycle! The UN is very committed to protecting the environment.

United Nations Day celebration in schools
On this day, schools usually organise special programmes to spread awareness about the significance of United Nations work. Children are told why it is necessary to appreciate diversity. They are made aware of various cultures, and how people from different parts of the world can co-exist.
In a way, United Nations Day commemorates the formation of a new era in history – an era where equality, peace, and cooperation are valued above war. It signifies that humans can come together united by their shared values of love, justice, and peace and that we can fight for our rights together. The diverse cultures, traditions, races, and languages unite as one family to serve humanity.
Some typical school activities include debates, presentations, speeches, and story-telling. Teachers also give special lectures on the importance of international cooperation, peace, and tolerance.
Let’s join forces and make the world a more united place!
