4. History And Significance Of World Habitat Day
The first World Habitat Day was held in 1986 in the city of Nairobi, the
Capital of Kenya, and was celebrated with the theme "Shelter Is My Right".
Let us tell you that this day is celebrated every year on the first Monday of
October with different themes.
For the first time in 1985, this day was declared as a resolution by the
United Nations General Assembly. On this day, the United Nations
discusses the activities, events, plans for better development, and how to
achieve these goals related to the housing system. As we told you that this
day is celebrated with different themes every year and these themes are
related to themes like a shelter for the homeless, better urban life, safe and
good cities, development of slum areas, and housing for all. it occurs.
The special purpose of celebrating this day is to recognize the basic rights
of human beings (such as bread, cloth, and house) and to give adequate
shelter to every person. The purpose of celebrating this day is to end
poverty and improve the condition of every town in the world. Every year
the UN sets a new theme for this day to promote development around the
world.
Importance Of A Safe Habitat
As the world's population is increasing rapidly, climate change, waste
management, and providing clean water for all have become a matter of
concern today. Waste management is not being done properly in many big
cities because the waste management system in big cities is not enough to
meet the needs of the growing population.

5. That is why in 2018 World Habitat Day was celebrated with the theme Municipal Solid Waste
Management. If we do not pay attention to the problem of household waste and the
maintenance of the dump site, then it will not be possible to deal with the problem of pollution,
that is why it is important to pay attention to waste management. If every city has a good waste
management system, it will also have a positive impact on the environment, public health, and
climate change.
Keeping this in mind, in 2019, the theme of Frontier Technologies as an Innovative Tool to
Transform Waste to Wealth has been kept so that it is possible to make money from waste too.
We are all aware that technology has the potential to improve and make things better, so it is a
good decision to use technology to avoid devastating impacts on public health, the
environment, and climate change.
Today on one hand the same person has many houses while on the other hand thousands of
people die simply because of this reason because they do not have a house. You must have also
read much such news in which it has been told that many homeless people have died due to
severe cold in the winter season and now it has become a regular story that is why every person
should have a safe house. For a sustainable lifestyle, it has become extremely important today
to address all the challenges faced by the human population.
Let us tell you that the purpose of World Habitat Day is not just to provide homes to the
homeless. The purpose of this day is also to establish a better social system. If people are also
living in the settlement, then it should be equipped with all facilities and people should feel safe
there.
