Since the 1980s, the UN has championed the importance of families in global development. This led to the proclamation of the annual observance of International Day of Families on 15 May. The 2025 Theme is Family-Oriented Policies for Sustainable Development: Towards the Second World Summit for Social Development. This day spotlights the pivotal role of family-oriented policies in advancing sustainable development. Families are at the heart of the Sustainable Development Goals — from ending poverty to ensuring well-being for all. Strong families mean stronger communities and a better world. #InternationalDayOfFamilies #UN #SDGs #FamilyMatters #GlobalDevelopment (fb)
