Thursday 20 March 2025 marks International Day of Happiness, which aims to make people around the world realize the importance of happiness within their lives.
Why not share happiness with friends and family on the International Day of Happiness. Taking the time to note and appreciate what oneself have to be thankful for, even the little things, will make people feel happier and more fulfilled in life.
Happiness is a fundamental human goal. The UN resolution A/RES/66/281 establishing the day in 2012 stated, among other things:
The General Assembly, Conscious that the pursuit of happiness is a fundamental human goal, Recognizing also the need for a more inclusive, equitable and balanced approach to economic growth that promotes sustainable development, poverty eradication, happiness and the well-being of all peoples, Decides to proclaim 20 March the International Day of Happiness, Invites all Member States, organizations of the United Nations system and other international and regional organizations, as well as civil society, including non-governmental organizations and individuals, to observe the International Day of Happiness in an appropriate manner, including through education and public awareness-raising activities
