The United Nations General Assembly designated August 21 as the “International Day of Remembrance and Tribute to the Victims of Terrorism.”
First commemorated on August 21, 2018, this occasion was established to honor the victims and survivors of terrorist acts, support them, and emphasize their human rights and fundamental freedoms. In subsequent years, the UN has placed greater emphasis on supporting victims, addressing their immediate, short-term, and long-term needs, and involving victims in global efforts to combat terrorism.
