My Notes
World population Day is the day commemorated for the purpose of high population growth in the entire world. United Nations are the one who were the initiator of this good cause almost half a decade ago. In the late of 1960’s all the leaders and NGO’s were having the perception that reproduction is the basic human right of every individual and they have complete freedom and responsibility of the number and timing of their children. But soon when the population grew to the milestone of 5 billion than the people started to think more seriously and that is when the campaigns started to grew on the awareness programs. The first ever world population day was being observed on July 11th 1989, this day was being named as the world population day because on this day the awareness regarding the population growth was being imparted. Since then United Nations declared that all government and non-governmental organizations will celebrate this day on every 11th July.
The basic purpose behind the observance of this day is to increase awareness regarding the social and economic problems of over population. On this day various ceremonies and programs are being conducted all over the globe and specially in United States in which the people are convinced to keep their families short and to have proper gap in between their children so that economic burden from the family as well as from the state should be reduced. World Population Day is not a public holiday as all the normal proceedings are carried but at the same time various NGO’s and different organizations do conduct the awareness programs regarding various issues which includes significance of family planning, gender equality, maternal health, poverty and human rights.
