Thus, World Peace and Understanding Day is an important occasion for promoting global harmony and goodwill. This unique day is observed annually to remind people of the positive contributions they can make to the world. Here are some things to remember as we prepare to celebrate this unique day.

February 23 is designated as World Peace and Understanding Day each year. The special date falls on a Friday this year.

The historic reference

The first gathering for the establishment of Rotary International took place in Chicago in 1905 when Paul P. Harris called a meeting with three of his friends. The first Rotary Clubs were established in the United States in 1910, primarily in Los Angeles, Oakland, San Francisco, and Seattle. Rotary International was the new name of the organization after the club quickly became well-known throughout the world and gained prominence. Positive resolution and global peacebuilding are the objectives of Rotary International.
