SUMMARY:World Humanitarians Day
DESCRIPTION:World Humanitarians Day \nWhat is the history? \nOn 19 August 2003\, a bomb attack on the Canal Hotel in Baghdad\, Iraq\, killed 22 humanitarian aid workers\, including the UN Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Iraq\, Sergio Vieira de Mello. Five years later\, the General Assembly adopted a resolution designating 19 August 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. \nWHD is a campaign by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) and humanitarian partners. \nWhat is the Theme for 2023? \nThis year\, our World Humanitarians Day campaign brings together the global humanitarian community to mark the twentieth anniversary of the attack on the UN headquarters in Baghdad\, Iraq. This shows our unwavering commitment to deliver for the communities we serve\, no matter who\, no matter where and #NoMatterWhat. \nHumanitarians have no other purpose than to save and protect lives and deliver the basic necessities of life\, they stand shoulder to shoulder with the communities they serve and bring hope. \nOn 19 August\, we come together to honour humanitarians around the world who strive to meet ever-growing global needs. No matter the danger or the hardship\, humanitarians venture deep into disaster-stricken regions and on the front lines of conflict\, strive to save and protect people in need.
