UNITED NATIONS
There are days observed by the United
Nations. The United Nations designates specific days, weeks, years and
decades as occasions to mark particular events or topics in order to promote,
through awareness and action, the objectives of the Organization. Usually, it
is one or more Member States that propose these observances and the General
Assembly establishes them with a resolution. On occasion, these celebrations
are declared by the specialized agencies of the United Nations, such as UNESCO,
UNICEF, FAO, etc., when they concern issues that fall within the scope of their
competencies. Some of them may be later adopted by the General Assembly.
