SUMMARY:International Youth Day
DESCRIPTION:Transforming food systems\nYouth innovation for human and planetary health\nWith the world’s population expected to increase by 2 billion people in the next 30 years\, it has become recognized by numerous stakeholders that simply producing a larger volume of healthier food more sustainably will not ensure human and planetary wellbeing. Other crucial challenges must also be addressed\, such as the interlinkages embodied by the 2030 Agenda including poverty reduction; social inclusion; health care; biodiversity conservation; and climate change mitigation. It has been acknowledged that there is a need for inclusive support mechanisms that ensure youth continue to amplify efforts collectively and individually to restore the planet and protect life\, while integrating biodiversity in the transformation of food systems. \nThe theme of International Youth Day 2021\, “Transforming Food Systems: Youth Innovation for Human and Planetary Health”\, highlights the success of such a global effort will not be achieved without the meaningful participation of young people. \nDuring the 2021 ECOSOC Youth Forum (EYF)\, the issues and priorities highlighted by young participants included the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic\, particularly related to its effect on human health\, the environment\, and food systems. As part of the official outcome recommendations of the EYF\, young participants stressed the importance of working towards more equitable food systems. In addition\, they highlighted the need for youth to make informed decisions on food choices through increasing global education on the healthiest and most sustainable options for both individuals and the environment. There were also recommendations on providing adequate capacity development with respect to the resilience of food systems\, in particular during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and in its aftermath. \nThrough youth education\, engagement\, innovation and entrepreneurial solutions\, this year’s International Youth Day aims to provide a platform for young people to continue the momentum from the EYF in the lead up to the high-level Food Systems Summit. This year\, International Youth Day will be virtually convened by DESA in partnership with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the Major Group for Children and Youth.

SUMMARY:World Humanitarian Day
DESCRIPTION:#TheHumanRace\nA global challenge for climate action in solidarity with the people who need it most\nThe climate emergency is wreaking havoc across the world at a scale that people on the front lines and in the humanitarian community cannot manage. Time is already running out for the world’s most vulnerable people — those who have contributed least to the global climate emergency yet are hit the hardest — and millions of others that are already losing their homes\, their livelihoods\, and their lives. \nWith most climate campaigns focused on slowing climate change and securing the planet’s future\, World Humanitarian Day 2021\, will highlight the immediate consequences of the climate emergency for the world’s most vulnerable people and ensure that their voices are heard\, and their needs top the agenda at the UN Climate Change Conference (COP26) in November. \nTherefore\, everyone is invited to join #TheHumanRace\, which is the global challenge for climate action in solidarity with people who need it the most; and to put the needs of climate-vulnerable people front and centre at the UN climate summit (COP26). \nStand in solidarity with the world’s most vulnerable people by using these hashtags in your social media activities #TheHumanRace #WorldHumanitarianDay \nBackground\nThis day was designated in memory of the 19 August 2003 bomb attack on the Canal Hotel in Baghdad\, Iraq\, killing 22 people\, including the chief humanitarian in Iraq\, Sergio Vieira de Mello. In 2009\, the United Nations General Assembly formalized the day as World Humanitarian Day (WHD). \nEach year\, WHD focuses on a theme\, bringing together partners from across the humanitarian system to advocate for the survival\, well-being and dignity of people affected by crises\, and for the safety and security of aid workers. \nThis year\, we highlight the immediate human cost of the climate crisis by pressuring world leaders to take meaningful climate action for the world’s most vulnerable people.

SUMMARY:International Overdose Awareness Day
DESCRIPTION:An Inspired Idea\nInternational Overdose Awareness Day was initiated in 2001 by Sally J Finn at The Salvation Army in St Kilda\, Melbourne. \nSince 2001\, many community members as well as government and non-government organisations have held events to raise awareness and commemorate those who have been lost to drug overdose. \nSince 2012\, International Overdose Awareness Day has been coordinated by the not-for-profit Australian public health organisation Penington Institute. \nPenington Institute\nPenington Institute connects lived experience and research to improve community safety in relation to drugs\, including alcohol and pharmaceuticals. \nWe focus on promoting effective strategies\, frontline workforce education and public awareness activities. Our work has a positive impact on people\, health and law enforcement systems\, the economy and society. An independent voice of reason on drug policy\, we are a straight-talking ally for practical insights\, information and evidence-based action for people in need. \nAims\nInternational Overdose Awareness Day is the world’s largest annual campaign to end overdose\, remember without stigma those who have died and acknowledge the grief of the family and friends left behind. \nThe campaign raises awareness of overdose\, which is one of the world’s worst public health crises\, and stimulates action and discussion about evidence-based overdose prevention and drug policy. \nThe campaign acknowledges the profound grief felt by families and friends whose loved ones have died or suffered permanent injury from a drug overdose. \nInternational Overdose Awareness Day spreads the message about the tragedy of drug overdose death and that drug overdose is preventable. \nThe goals of International Overdose Awareness Day are: \n\nTo provide an opportunity for people to publicly mourn loved ones in a safe environment\, some for the first time without feeling guilt or shame.\nTo include the greatest number of people in International Overdose Awareness Day events\, and encourage non-denominational involvement.\nTo give community members information about the issue of fatal and non-fatal overdose.\nTo send a strong message to current and former people who use drugs that they are valued.\nTo stimulate discussion about overdose prevention and drug policy.\nTo provide basic information on the range of support services that are available.\nTo prevent and reduce drug-related harm by supporting evidence-based policy and practice.\nTo inform people around the world about the risk of overdose.\n\nwww.overdoseday.com
