Upcoming DAY: International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women (25 November) This site contains information on United Nations days, weeks, years, decades and other observances, resolutions declaring them and links to events websites. United Nations observances are used to contribute to the achievement of the purposes of the UN Charter and promote awareness of and action upon, important political, social, cultural, humanitarian or human rights issues. They provide a useful means for the promotion of international and national action and stimulate interest in United Nations activities and programmes. For international years and decades the UN Secretary General takes action to establish preparatory process, evaluation and follow-up procedures. The majority of observances have been established by the UN General Assembly and some have been designated by UN specialized agencies. In 1950, the General Assembly approved the first international day — Human Rights Day — to be observed on 10 December. Resolution 423 (V) invited all states and international organizations to observe this day to celebrate the proclamation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights by the General Assembly on 10 December 1948, and to exert increasing efforts in this field of human progress. In 1978, the General Assembly by its resolution S-10/2 proclaimed the first international week — the week starting 24 October (the day of the foundation of the UN) — as a week devoted to fostering the objectives of disarmament (Disarmament Week). The first international year was proclaimed by the General Assembly in 1959. It was the World Refugee Year [Resolution 1285 (XIII)]. The first UN decade was the United Nations Development Decade designated by the General Assembly in 1961 [Resolution 1710 (XVI)]. Every year the United Nations Department of Public Information issues a press release United Nations Conferences and Observances that contains a list and description of all the events for current and ensuing years.

Rule of law focus of UN-backed training in Caribbean Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon 21 July 2009 – The United Nations has helped train nearly 90 officials of Caribbean Community (CARICOM) nations on the consolidation and advancement of the rule of law, a top priority of Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. The three-day workshop last week in Kingstown in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines brought together 17 men and 69 women serving with their nations’ foreign affairs and justice ministries, as well as judges and attorneys general. Convened by CARICOM and organized in collaboration with the UN Treaty Section of the Office of Legal Affairs (OLA), the gathering touched on international treaty law, participation in multilateral treaties and how the UN can assist CARICOM nations implement treaties on the domestic level. Earlier this month, Mr. Ban hailed the cooperation between the UN and CARICOM in tackling the various crises impacting the region and the world at large, including the global financial turmoil and climate change. “In the current daunting international environment, our partnership is more important than ever,” he said in a message to the heads of government meeting of the regional body in Georgetown, Guyana. CARICOM nations, the Secretary-General said, which are highly vulnerable to external shocks and among the most indebted in the world, are especially affected by the economic and financial crisis.
