Celebrating Teacher Appreciation Week!
International Mother Language Day is an annual worldwide observance held on 21 February to promote awareness of linguistic and cultural diversity and to promote multilingualism. First announced by UNESCO on 17 November 1999, it was formally recognized by the United Nations General Assembly in 2002. Mother Language Day is part of a broader initiative "to promote the preservation and protection of all languages used by peoples of the world". The idea to celebrate International Mother Language Day was the initiative of Bangladesh. In Bangladesh, 21 February is the anniversary of the day when the people of Bangladesh (then East Pakistan) fought for recognition for the Bangla language. It is also celebrated in West Bengal, India.
