INTERNATIONAL FAMILY DAY

INTERNATIONAL FAMILY DAY

What is family? People who need you. For better or for worse, in little things or in the whole, they come when you need them and stay with you, no matter what.

Every year on May 15, as decided by the UN General Assembly, the world celebrates the International day of the family. On September 20, 1993, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution noting that "families are an important factor in sustainable development at all levels of society," and proclaimed May 15 as the International day of the family. UN Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali personally initiated the day. Since then, the holiday has been observed in many countries around the world to reinforce family values as well as to raise public awareness of family issues. It is an opportunity to raise awareness about families and to deepen knowledge about the socio-economic and demographic processes that affect families.

Each year has a different motto. This year's International Day of the Family will focus on the theme: "Demographic trends and families" and aims to share knowledge about demographic trends, including aging and solidarity between generations, and analyze their impact on family life.

It is difficult to underestimate the role of the family in society. It is where the foundation of the personality of each person is laid, the continuity of all subsequent generations. The family is a social institution, where the child reveals the potential inherent in nature and determines its place in life, learns goodness, justice and creativity. The further dynamic development of social phenomena directly depends on the personal characteristics of each person, his contribution to the creative process. State authorities of all countries pay special attention to the formation of family relations as a guarantor of stability and well-being. A real family is not bound by blood ties, but by respect and joy for each other's achievements. Think of your family today and every day! Don't let today's aggressive world stop you from showing how much you love and appreciate your family members!
