Annual Celebration on June 5th

World Environment Day (WED) is celebrated annually on June 5th, encouraging awareness and action for the protection of the environment. The United Nations designated this day to highlight the importance of environmental health and protection.

Global Participation and Recognition

WED is a global platform that inspires positive change, with people from over 150 countries participating. Led by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the day has been observed annually since 1973, becoming the largest global platform for environmental awareness.

Urgent Call for Action

In 2021, the WED theme emphasized the urgent need for global action to restore damaged ecosystems. The day provides an opportunity for individuals, organizations, and governments to come together and address pressing environmental challenges, such as climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss.
