15th of May – International Day of Families

International Day of Families, celebrated annually on May 15, was proclaimed by UN General Assembly Resolution 47/237 in 1993.

The idea of establishing this holiday arose back in 1989, when, wishing to draw the attention of the public of different countries to the problems of the family, the UN General Assembly proclaimed 1994 the International Year of the Family, and in 1993 adopted a resolution on the establishment of today's holiday.

The establishment of this day aims to draw the attention of the public of the countries to the many problems of the family. And it provides an opportunity to raise awareness of family issues and deepen knowledge of the socio-economic and demographic processes that affect the situation of families.

According to the UN, when the basic rights of one family are violated, the unity of the entire human family, of which they are members, is under threat.

Being one of the basic institutions of society, the first stage of human socialization, the family develops and changes along with the surrounding world, in its own way reacting to the demands of the time, responding to social needs and itself shaping them.

The family, as the main element of society, has been and remains the keeper of human values, culture and historical continuity of generations, a factor of stability and development. Thanks to the family, the state grows stronger and develops, the well-being of the people grows. At all times, the development of a country was judged by the position of the family in society and the state in relation to it.

A person's life begins with a family, here he is formed as a citizen. The family is a source of love, respect, solidarity and affection, something on which any civilized society is built, without which a person cannot exist. The well-being of the family is the measure of the development and progress of the country.

In many countries of the world, whole strategies of demographic development have been developed. And on this holiday itself, various educational, public and festive events are held - concerts; meetings of married couples with extensive experience in family life; charity events for foster families with children and for children from large and low-income families; trainings for young families; thematic workshops and conferences, radio and television programs, newspaper publications and programs on family themes, and other events.
