World Population Day is an annual event that draws attention to global population issues.

Ever since its inaugural day in 1990, World Population Day has been held on 11 July. It is observed by the UNFPA (UN Population Fund) in collaboration with governments and civil society organizations.

According to the UNFPA, World Population Day 2023 will focus on gender equality. Women and girls make up 49.7% of our world’s population. Their marginalization in education, the workforce, and leadership positions limits their ability to make decisions about their health and puts them at greater risk of becoming victims of violence.
