An awareness day is a date set aside by the United Nations, the World Health Organization or another body to draw attention to a single subject: an illness, a right, an environmental concern. A fixed date gives campaigners and the media a reliable occasion to inform the public. Open Data Insights lists a selection of the international awareness days observed tomorrow, each with a link to a fuller description.
World Kindness Day is an international observance held on November 13. It was introduced in 1998 by the World Kindness Movement, a coalition of nations' kindness NGOs. The day is observed in many countries, including Canada, Australia, Nigeria and the United Arab Emirates, with Singapore first observing it in 2009 and Italy and India also participating. In the UK, it is fronted by David Jamilly, who co-founded Kindness Day UK with Louise Burfitt-Dons.
