Sign this petition to observe and celebrate July 10th as International Human Duties Day every year! Be a Global Leader!

In today's world, nations and individuals are more interconnected than ever. Actions in one part of the world can have far-reaching consequences. Recognising and fulfilling human duties for leaders on an international scale can contribute to global development and cooperation.

Many of the challenges facing humanity, such as poverty, climate change, conflicts and pandemics, are global in nature. International Human Duties Day could serve as a reminder that leaders, individuals and nations have shared responsibilities to address these challenges collectively.

This is not just about rights; it's about duties too.

By declaring an International Human Duties Day at the United Nations, we would be taking a significant step towards acknowledging these responsibilities globally. This day could serve as a yearly reminder for all nations about their duty towards humanity - fostering mutual respect, promoting sustainable practices, boosting economic growth, ensuring social justice - thereby contributing positively towards global peace.

Let us urge the United Nations to declare an International Human Duties Day on 10th of July — a day dedicated not only to recognising but also fulfilling our shared responsibilities for creating a better world for everyone.

We propose that the International Human Duties Day is observed every year on July 10th and celebrated around the world.
