JMA Pilani Rajasthan Observes World Humanitarian Day

World Humanitarian Day is a time to recognize those who face danger and adversity in order to help others. The day was designated by the General Assembly to coincide with the anniversary of the 2003 bombing of the UN headquarters in Baghdad, Iraq.

The world at large undoubtedly needs more of Happiness, Sustainability, Team Work, Peace, Healthcare, Education, Understanding, Clean Air, Drinking Water, Food, Clothing, Housing etc. To achieve this, more youngsters must come voluntarily forward to help others as World Humanitarian Day is all about Celebrating People Helping People.

19 August, 2013 indeed marks 10 years since that tragic Baghdad event, which claimed 22 lives. This year, the international community will pause to remember those who died, as well as the dozens of aid workers, who have died in the years since. But World Humanitarian Day is also an opportunity to celebrate the spirit that inspires humanitarian work around the globe. The theme chosen for 2016 is “One Humanity”.
