The United Nations, through its wing – the UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization), came up with the idea of dedicating a day to celebrate sports and its positive aspects. The International Day of Sport for Development and Peace 2020 is celebrated every year on April 06. A motion to this effect was passed at the UN General Assembly in August 2013. The UNESCO believes the ideals of sports like fair play and team spirit go a long way in uplifting society.
