United Nations Day is celebrated annually on October 24. This date commemorates the official creation of the United Nations (UN), which was founded on October 24, 1945, following the ratification of the United Nations Charter by the majority of its signatories, including the five permanent members of the Security Council (China, the United States, France, the United Kingdom, and the Soviet Union). The main purpose of United Nations Day is to remember the importance of the UN in promoting peace, security, human rights, sustainable development, and international cooperation among countries. The date also reinforces the UN's mission to unite global efforts to address international challenges such as climate change, poverty, inequality, and conflict.
