The 7th International Day of Women and Girls in Science Assembly , taking place in virtual format from UN Headquarters in New York, aims to recognize the role of women and girls in science, not only as beneficiaries, but also as agents of change, including in view of
accelerating progress towards the achievement of SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation).
February marks Black History Month in the US and Canada, when we honor the significant achievements and contributions of Black Americans and Black Canadians to our society and
culture. It’s a time of reflection, to pay tribute to the Black Leaders of our past as well an opportunity to inspire the legacies yet to be created.
Joined by the international community, hundreds of thousands of landmarks, buildings, homes and communities around the world come together on April 2, Autism Awareness Day, to Light It Up Blue in recognition of people with autism and those who love and support them
The theme of this year’s Earth Day is Invest In Our Planet. This is the moment to change it all — the business climate, the political climate, and how we take action on climate. Now is the time for the unstoppable courage to preserve and protect our health, our families, our livelihoods… together, we must Invest In Our Planet.

World Health Day
World Health Day is a global health awareness day celebrated every year on 7 April, under the sponsorship of the World Health Organization, as well as other related organizations. Physical, mental, and emotional well-being is promoted and celebrated all over the world on this day
May
Mental Health Awareness Month
Mental Health Awareness Month was started by the Mental Health America (MHA)
organization in 1949. During these unprecedented times as we deal with the
physical and emotional challenges of COVID-19, mental health challenges of anxiety, grief, isolation, and stress are at the forefront more than ever. During the month of May, MHA, its affiliates, and other organizations interested in mental health conduct a number of activities which are based on a different theme each
year. This year’s theme is “Tools 2 Thrive”.

Mother's Day

Every year, Mother’s Day honors mothers and grandmothers for their contributions
to our families, communities and society. But it’s much more than a day to buy flowers, lunch or a scarf for the woman who created your family. It’s a day to take the time to spend time with her and truly tell her how important she is to you and your whole family.

June
Pride Month
Yes, June is Pride Month, a month devoted to celebrating the LGBTQ+ community.
But at Getty Images, we want to move beyond rainbows and Pride Month, and inspire the media and advertising industries to be more inclusive in their visual choices throughout the entire year. We partnered with GLAAD to create imagery
which is all at once powerful, reflective, and authentic in its depictions of the entire
LGBTQ+ spectrum.

Asian Pacific
American Heritage Month
Get inspired by this curated board of video + stills
Asian Pacific Americans account for nearly 5% of the American population and the group is projected to be the fastest-growing major population category over the next half-century, outpacing Blacks, whites and Hispanics. May was chosen as it has a dual commemoration of the date of the immigration of the first Japanese to the
United States on May 7, 1843, and the completion of the transcontinental railroad on May 10, 1869. The majority of the workers who laid the tracks were Chinese immigrants.
Father's Day
Father’s Day honors all fathers, grandfathers, great-grandfathers, and father figures
for their contributions to their families and the world. President Nixon signed P.L. 92-278 into law in 1972, officially making Father’s Day a federal holiday celebrated on the third Sunday in June.

Parents' Day
Where would we be without our parents, the people who loved us even before we
were born? They do so much for us every day of our young lives and the love
doesn’t stop once we’re adults. That’s why we honor them on their special day,
National Parents’ Day July 24, celebrated on the fourth Sunday in July.

Americans with Disabilities Act Day
People with disabilities are one of the largest groups in the world yet they are all but invisible within media. The visual emphasis is often on their disability rather than authentic everyday living. Less that 1% of ads represent people with disabilities,
despite the fact that ¼ of adults live with a disability. Make sure your visuals are
truly inclusive of all communities.

August
National Immunization Awareness Month
National Immunization Awareness Month (NIAM) is an annual observance held in
August to highlight the importance of vaccination for people of all ages. If the
COVID-19 global pandemic has taught us anything, it is how important it is for
communities to be immunized against disease.

DOGust 1st: Universal Birthday for Shelter Dogs
Being a shelter dog can be “ruff”. So, August 1 is known as Dogust 1st: Universal Birthday for Shelter Dogs. Back in 2008, the world’s largest no-kill animal rescue
and adoption organization, North Shore Animal League America chose August 1 (or “DOGust 1st) as the universal birthday for all shelter dogs, or as it refers to them,
“mutt-i-grees.”

US Senior Citizen
Day
With individuals living and thriving longer, it’s progressively essential that we

Day is a chance to understand the contribution and dedication of seniors, and to make sure that they are represented in media and advertising so that they don’t
feel “unseen” in their later years.

September
Hispanic Heritage Month, Thursday, September 15-Saturday, October 15
Each year, Americans observe National Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15 to October 15, by celebrating the histories, cultures and contributions of American
citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America. The day of September 15 is significant because it is the anniversary
of independence for Latin American countries Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. In addition, Mexico and Chile celebrate their independence days on September 16 and September 18.

grandparents to a dinner out or homemade feast in their honor.

National Daughters Day
The initial reason for creating National Daughters Day was to erase the stigma in
some countries attached to having a girl instead of a boy child. But in developed
countries Daughters Day is a day to celebrate the joy and wonder of having a baby girl and raising a daughter.

way that they are raising them and if they're doing their best.

World Smile Day
World Smile Day (October 7) is a relatively new holiday with a fascinating story. Created by a commercial artist named Harvey Ball, this day came about as a response to his creation of the smiley face. Harvey worried that the commercialization of the symbol would lessen its impact. The little yellow faces are more than just a symbol, they’re a statement about the power of smiling.

December
National Mutt Day encourages us to embrace, save and celebrate mixed breed dogs twice a year on July 31st and December 2nd. Desperately longing for a new home, millions of loving and healthy mixed breed dogs in shelters wait for someone to come and adopt them. National Mutt Day provides an excellent opportunity to find
the perfect canine companion. While their lineage cannot be traced and their features are a bit murky, their companionship will be faithful.
