It was officially recognized by the UN in 2017, after being founded by Marci Segal in 2001. The observance underscores the role of creative thinking and innovative approaches in advancing human development, particularly in achieving the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as poverty eradication and climate action.
