World Population Day Observed Across The World On 11 July
World Population Day was observed on 11 July 2015 across the world. The theme for the year 2015 is ‘Vulnerable Populations in Emergencies’. The theme focuses on the record number of people displaced by crises – some 60 million according to the latest UN figures. At present, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) is working around the globe to respond to the rights and needs of women and girls, and help them to maintain their dignity by securing their safety, and restoring their access to sexual and reproductive health care. In 1989, in its decision 89/46, the Governing Council of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) declared 11 July as the day that should be observed as World Population Day by the International Community. The UNDP recommended 11 July as world Population Day, in order to focus attention on the urgency and importance of population issues in the context of overall development plans and programmes and the need to find solutions for these issues.
