SUMMARY:World Liver Day
DESCRIPTION:WORLD LIVER DAY \n\n\n\nCOMING SOON: 19 April 2026\n\n\n\nThe official liver health awareness campaign. \n\n\n\nSolid Habits\, Strong Liver. \n\n\n\nYour liver is a powerhouse:  it filters blood\, breaks down food\, stores energy\, and keeps your body in balance. But today\, 1/3 of the global adult population is living with a condition called metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Often linked with weight\, diet\, and lifestyle\, MASLD can stay silent for years\, but over time it may lead to scarring (fibrosis)\, cirrhosis (advanced fibrosis and loss of some of the liver function)\, or even liver cancer. \n\n\n\nThe good news? Small\, steady lifestyle changes can make a big difference. \n\n\n\nOur 2026 campaign\, Solid Habits\, Strong Liver\, highlights four solid habits that keep your liver strong: eating a balanced diet\, staying active\, reducing alcohol intake\, and getting regular liver checks. By making these habits part of your daily life\, you can take control of your liver health and prevent serious complications.

SUMMARY:Cystic Fibrosis "65 Roses" National Awareness Day Cystic Fibrosis Ireland
DESCRIPTION:What is 65 Roses Day? \n\n\n\n65 Roses Day is our National Fundraising Day for Cystic Fibrosis Ireland. The term “65 Roses” originates from a boy listening to his Mum making calls to fundraise for Cystic Fibrosis. He commented afterwards on her working for “65 Roses”. This led to a worldwide fundraising campaign called 65 Roses Day.

SUMMARY:World Autism Day
DESCRIPTION:Since the United Nations General Assembly designated 2 April as World Autism Awareness Day (WAAD) in 2007\, the UN has worked to promote the full realization of human rights and fundamental freedoms for autistic individuals\, ensuring their equal participation in society. Over the years\, significant progress has been made\, driven in large part by autistic advocates who have worked tirelessly to bring the lived experiences of autistic individuals to the forefront of global discussions. \n\n\n\nThe 2007 General Assembly resolution (A/RES/62/139) highlighted the need to raise public awareness of autism. Today\, the global movement has expanded beyond awareness to actively promote acceptance\, appreciation\, and inclusion\, recognizing the contributions autistic people make to their communities and the world at large. \n\n\n\nThe 2026 World Autism Awareness Day Observance \n\n\n\nThe 2026 observance of World Autism Awareness Day (WAAD)\, held under the theme “Autism and Humanity – Every Life Has Value\,” highlights and affirms the dignity and worth of all autistic people as part of our shared human future. At a time when misinformation and regressive rhetoric about the lives of autistic people is resurfacing\, this year’s virtual event is a call to action to move beyond limiting narratives and to recognise the inherent dignity\, equal rights\, and unconditional worth of every autistic person.

SUMMARY:Endometriosis Awareness Month
DESCRIPTION:March marks Endometriosis Awareness Month\, a time to raise understanding about a condition that affects approximately 1 in 10 women and people assigned female at birth. Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus\, which can cause chronic pain\, fatigue\, and other health challenges.

SUMMARY:International Migrants Day
DESCRIPTION:International Migrants Day gives us a special opportunity to shine a spotlight on the invaluable contributions of millions of migrants around the world. It’s also a day for us to highlight the increasingly complex environment in which migration occurs. Conflicts\, climate-related disasters and economic pressures continue to drive millions of people from their homes in search of safety or simply opportunity. \n\n\n\nThis past year\, we saw record levels of internal displacement\, rising humanitarian needs across ongoing and new crises\, and\, tragically\, the highest-ever death toll of migrants in transit. Yet\, alongside these challenges\, are stories of resilience\, progress and hope. Where safe and well-managed migration holds extraordinary potential. Migrants play critical roles in labour markets\, filling skills gaps\, driving innovation and entrepreneurship\, and addressing demographic challenges in aging societies. Migrants boost economic growth and provide a lifeline to families and communities back home\, driving development. \n\n\n\nThe evidence is overwhelming that when migration is managed safely and strategically\, it can be a powerful force for good. By supporting regular pathways for migration\, we can enable opportunities for migrants\, better protect their rights\, and contribute to greater prosperity in the countries migrants come from and those that host them. \n\n\n\nTogether\, one step at a time\, we can continue building a world where migration is safe\, orderly\, and beneficial – for everyone.

SUMMARY:International Volunteer Day
DESCRIPTION:For the International Volunteer Day 2024\, United Nations Volunteers (UNV) demonstrates its commitment to communities and the wellbeing of UN Volunteers across the globe through concrete community volunteer activities carried out with national and UN system partners. \n\n\n\nIt is simply not possible to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) without including people at all stages\, at all levels\, and at all times. \n\n\n\nVolunteering makes people part of the solutions. Volunteerism lets people and communities participate in their development.  \n\n\n\nThe challenges we face—climate change\, conflicts\, and social injustices can feel overwhelming. Yet\, in these trying moments\, the spirit of volunteerism shines brighter than ever. In every corner of the world\, volunteers are usually the first to respond. They rise to meet challenges with courage\, dedication\, and selflessness. \n\n\n\nVolunteers create a richer culture of service within their communities. They help bridge the gap between generations and support sustainable development.  \n\n\n\nVolunteering allows us to work together across generations to achieve the SDGs. Volunteering is an intergenerational cycle.

SUMMARY:International Day of Persons with Disabilities
DESCRIPTION:The leadership of persons with disabilities is epitomised by the global disability rights movement’s slogan “Nothing About Us Without Us”. It connotes the basic requirements of participation\, representation and inclusion and calls for persons with disabilities to actively shape the conditions of their lives. \n\n\n\nOne of the priorities of the global disability agenda is to advance the agency and leadership of persons with disabilities. In the past decades\, persons with disabilities and organisations of persons with disabilities (OPDs) have already championed for the changes in their communities\, and have been leading many of the community-led initiatives not only to advance their own rights\, and wellbeing but also promoting inclusive development for instance enabling universal access to basic services by all; they have done so by taking both targeted and mainstreaming approaches to disability inclusion through\, among others\, consultation\, data collection and analysis\, and support with advocacy and accountability efforts. \n\n\n\nThe observance of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities 2024 (IDPD 2024) takes place against the backdrop of pivotal global developments\, from the Summit of the Future to the upcoming Second World Summit for Social Development. These key global Summits will complement one another in providing a continuous roadmap toward disability-inclusive and sustainable peace and development. By emphasising this complementarity\, the theme chosen for the observance in 2024 aims to underscore the importance of leveraging the leadership of persons with disabilities to ensure disability-inclusive and sustainable peace and development for all. \n\n\n\nThe United Nations Disability Inclusion Strategy\n\n\n\nWhen launching the United Nations Disability Inclusion Strategy in June 2019\, the Secretary-General stated that the United Nations should lead by example and raise the Organization’s standards and performance on disability inclusion—across all pillars of work\, from headquarters to the field.   \n\n\n\nThe United Nations Disability Inclusion Strategy provides the foundation for sustainable and transformative progress on disability inclusion through all pillars of the work of the United Nations. Through the Strategy\, the United Nations system reaffirms that the full and complete realization of the human rights of all persons with disabilities is an inalienable\, integral and indivisible part of all human rights and fundamental freedoms. \n\n\n\nIn 2024\, the Secretary-General submitted his fifth report on disability inclusion in the UN system. It reflects on the progress made to advance disability inclusion\, highlights new or continuing challenges and opportunities presented through the Strategy’s implementation\, and emphasizes key areas of focus needed to continue mobilizing the system towards an inclusive\, accessible and sustainable world for all.

SUMMARY:Awareness Week on Alcohol Related Harm
DESCRIPTION:“A glass of alcohol won’t kill you but a law can save thousands of lives” \n\n\n\nIn Europe\, every minute\, policy makers have an opportunity to save lives by addressing the high levels of alcohol consumption that uniquely affect our region. Millions of people suffer from health issues\, violence\, injuries\, job losses\, and various other harms. \n\n\n\nThe Awareness Week on Alcohol Related Harm 2023 (AWARH23) is set to capture the attention of policy makers\, bringing to light the critical issue of alcohol-related harm in Europe. Starting on Monday\, November 27th\, this campaign aims to create a positive change. \n\n\n\nWe encourage policy makers to listen to the video stories addressed to them\, to follow AWARH23 on social media and to share our cause. \n\n\n\nLet’s ensure that the facts and policy solutions for alcohol harm are heard loudly and clearly\, with the hope of making a positive impact on the lives of many. There is no excuse for not taking action to protect citizens from alcohol-related harm.

SUMMARY:International day of elimination of violence against women
DESCRIPTION:Violence against women and girls remains one of the most prevalent and pervasive human rights violations in the world. Globally\, almost one in three women have been subjected to physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence\, non-partner sexual violence\, or both\, at least once in their life. \n\n\n\nFor at least 51\,100 women in 2023\, the cycle of gender-based violence ended with one final and brutal act—their murder by partners and family members. That means a woman was killed every 10 minutes. \n\n\n\nThis scourge has intensified in different settings\, including the workplace and online spaces\, and has been exacerbated by conflicts\, and climate change. \n\n\n\nThe solution lies in robust responses\, holding perpetrators accountable\, and accelerating action through well-resourced national strategies and increased funding to women’s rights movements.

SUMMARY:Universal Children’s Day
DESCRIPTION:World Children’s Day was first established in 1954 as Universal Children’s Day and is celebrated on 20 November each year to promote international togetherness\, awareness among children worldwide\, and improving children’s welfare. \n\n\n\nNovember 20th is an important date as it is the date in 1959 when the UN General Assembly adopted the Declaration of the Rights of the Child. It is also the date in 1989 when the UN General Assembly adopted the Convention on the Rights of the Child. \n\n\n\nSince 1990\, World Children’s Day also marks the anniversary of the date that the UN General Assembly adopted both the Declaration and the Convention on children’s rights. \n\n\n\nMothers and fathers\, teachers\, nurses and doctors\, government leaders and civil society activists\, religious and community elders\, corporate moguls and media professionals\, as well as young people and children themselves\, can play an important part in making World Children’s Day relevant for their societies\, communities and nations. \n\n\n\nWorld Children’s Day offers each of us an inspirational entry-point to advocate\, promote and celebrate children’s rights\, translating into dialogues and actions that will build a better world for children.

SUMMARY:World Diabetes Day
DESCRIPTION:Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes. You can get diabetic retinopathy if you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes. \n\n\n\nIt is caused by high blood glucose levels damaging the back of the eye (retina). It can cause vision loss if it is not diagnosed and treated. \n\n\n\nAround 1 in 20 people with diabetes are at risk of vision loss due to diabetic retinopathy. \n\n\n\nWho diabetic retina screening is for\n\n\n\nThe Diabetic RetinaScreen programme is for people in Ireland with type 1 and type 2 diabetes\, age 12 years and older. \n\n\n\nThe screening programme is free of charge for everyone with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. \n\n\n\nWhy get diabetic retina screening\n\n\n\nScreening is a way of finding any changes to the small blood vessels in the lining of the retina. Screening can find and treat retinopathy early. It involves having a photo taken of your eyes with a digital camera. \n\n\n\nWhen retinopathy is caught early\, treatment is effective at reducing or preventing damage to your sight. \n\n\n\nThe longer you have had diabetes\, the more likely you are to develop diabetic retinopathy. \n\n\n\nWhen screening takes place\n\n\n\nFor most people\, diabetic retina screening is once a year. \n\n\n\nIf you have had no retinopathy in your last 2 screenings\, your next screening will be in 2 years’ time. \n\n\n\nDigital surveillance eye screening is where your eyes are monitored more than once a year\, but you do not need treatment.

SUMMARY:World Stroke Day
DESCRIPTION:World Stroke Day on October 29th 2025 comes just weeks after the 4th UN High-Level Meeting on Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) on September 25th — a pivotal moment that will shape the global agenda for NCDs\, including stroke\, for years to come. Keeping stroke at the forefront of these discussions is the focus of the WSO-convened Global Stroke Action Coalition and its Every Minute Counts advocacy campaign. \n\n\n\nThe timing presents an unmissable opportunity to amplify our message. This year\, World Stroke Day will enhance the Every Minute Counts campaign with public-facing messaging focused on helping people everywhere recognize the signs of stroke and the urgent need to #ActFAST. It’s also a chance to mobilize a broader audience to demand government action on the policy recommendations outlined in #StrokeActionNow.

SUMMARY:World Osteoporosis Day
DESCRIPTION:World Osteoporosis Day\, marked on October 20th each year\, is a prime time to put the spotlight on osteoporosis. Below\, read about this year’s campaign theme\, and how you can get involved and support the campaign in a number of ways. \n\n\n\nAbout the 2025 World Osteoporosis Day Campaign\n\n\n\n“It’s Unacceptable!” puts the spotlight on the persistent and preventable crisis in osteoporosis care. \n\n\n\nDespite affecting over 500 million people worldwide\, osteoporosis remains severely underdiagnosed and undertreated—especially among those who have already sustained fragility fractures. Shockingly\, up to 80% of patients with osteoporotic fractures receive no follow-up diagnosis or treatment. The consequences are devastating: chronic pain\, disability\, loss of independence\, increased risk of future fractures\, and premature death. Families\, healthcare systems\, and economies also shoulder the heavy burden of this neglect. \n\n\n\nThe campaign demands an end to the neglect in prevention and care\, and urgent policy action. At a time when effective diagnostic tools\, treatments\, and programmes like Fracture Liaison Services exist\, the continued inaction is indefensible. With aging populations and fracture rates rising\, osteoporosis must be prioritized across all stages of life—from prevention in youth to post-fracture care. “It’s Unacceptable!” calls on the public\, healthcare providers\, and health authorities to close the treatment gap\, dismantle misconceptions\, and make bone health a global priority.
