International Day of Families HistoryThe International Day of Families is a special day dedicated to honouring and strengthening the bonds that families share worldwide. Celebrated annually on 15th May, this observance was first introduced by the United Nations in 1993, with its primary objective being to raise awareness of the diverse and vital role that families play in social development. Recognised across the UK, this momentous day offers a unique opportunity for families to come together, share in memorable experiences, discuss pressing issues, and promote community connections, as well as policy awareness and knowledge on issues relating to families. The history of International Day of Families dates back to the initial proclamation by the United Nations General Assembly in its resolution 47/237 of 20th September 1993. This proclamation is in line with the objectives of the International Year of the Family in 1994, which emphasised the essential role of families in nurturing sustainable societies. Each year, the UN designates a theme focusing on a specific aspect of family life, from intergenerational solidarity to work-life balance and gender equality. These themes often inspire a range of events, campaigns, and activities across the UK, including school programmes, community workshops, and family fun days, to celebrate the diverse nature of families. Marked on the 15th of May every year, International Day of Families serves as a reminder of the importance of nurturing and maintaining strong family connections. The observance encourages families in the UK and around the globe to celebrate their uniqueness, share their challenges, and strengthen the bonds that unite them.
