UN English Language Day

UN English Language Day, established by the United Nations Department of Public Information in 2010, aims to celebrate multilingualism and cultural diversity while promoting the equal use of all six official languages within the organization. This day highlights the importance of the English language as a global means of communication, diplomacy, and cooperation. English Language Day provides an opportunity to recognize the significance of English in facilitating dialogue, understanding, and collaboration among people from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds. Through various educational and cultural activities, this day emphasizes the value of multilingualism and encourages the appreciation of linguistic diversity as a cornerstone of international cooperation and peace-building efforts.
