🌍 World Population Day 

World Population Day is observed every year on July 11th to raise awareness about global population issues and their impact on development, health, and the environment. Established by the United Nations in 1989, this day was inspired by the milestone of Five Billion Day in 1987, when the world’s population reached five billion. In 2025, the global population has surpassed 8.2 billion, bringing both opportunities and challenges.

The theme for World Population Day 2025 is “Empowering young people to create the families they want in a fair and hopeful world.” This highlights the importance of youth empowerment, gender equality, . As the largest youth generation in history, young people play a crucial role in shaping a sustainable future. The day encourages informed family planning, access to education and healthcare, and policies that support individual choices.
