The Day of Remembrance for All Victims of Chemical Warfare is observed on November 30 each year to honour victims and reaffirm the global commitment to eradicating chemical weapons. Established during the 20th Session of the Conference of the States Parties to the Chemical Weapons Convention, the observance aligns with the opening day of annual CWC sessions. It underscores the importance of peace and international cooperation, supported by the Chemical Weapons Convention, which has successfully overseen the elimination of over 99% of declared chemical weapon stockpiles.
