International Day of Families, celebrated every May 15, aims to raise awareness about the importance of the family unit in society. In 2024, the 30th anniversary of the International Day of Families will be marked with the theme "Families and Climate Change," as reported by the official UN website.
Climate change has significant impacts on family health and well-being through increased air pollution and extreme weather events such as typhoons, droughts, and floods.
These changes can force families to relocate and lose their livelihoods, affecting agricultural productivity, access to water, and leading to increased hunger and economic vulnerability. Industries heavily impacted include agriculture and fisheries.
To tackle these challenges, it is crucial to empower families through education, changes in consumption habits, and climate advocacy. Families play a key role in passing sustainable values from generation to generation, making it important to instill climate awareness and environmentally friendly practices from an early age.
The 2024 International Day of Families aims to enhance understanding of how climate change affects families and the role families can play in climate action.
It also provides an opportunity to deepen knowledge about family-related issues and the social, economic, and demographic processes that influence them.
By increasing family-based awareness and actions, we hope to more effectively address the impacts of climate change and support sustainability.
