7. Universal Children's Day
On December 14, 1954, the United Nations General Assembly recommended
that all countries should introduce an annual event from 1956 known as
Universal Children's Day to encourage understanding between children all
over the world and promoting the welfare of children.
It was recommended that individual countries should choose an appropriate
date for this occasion.
Many of the countries respected this recommendation and the Universal
Children's Day has since been annually observed on November 20.
