Dear Comrades of COMRADE ! ! !
World Humanitarian Day is a time to
recognize those who face danger and adversity in order to help others. The day
was designated by the General Assembly of United Nations to
coincide with the anniversary of the 2003 bombing of the United Nations
headquarters in Baghdad, Iraq.
World Humanitarian Day is also an
opportunity to celebrate the spirit that inspires humanitarian work around the
globe.
This year, the UN and its
humanitarian partners invite all of us to inspire the world’s humanity. The
theme calls on you to join any of the world’s humanitarian organizations and
become an active messenger of Humanity.
The first day of action will be 19
August: World Humanitarian Day. This is a day to celebrate humanitarians around
the world. In an effort to build a global sense of momentum, we will call on
our Messengers of Humanity to take an important social action on this day and
share them on your social networks and amplify the message.
