Sustainable Gastronomy Day is observed every year on June 18, as designated by the United Nations General Assembly through resolution A/RES/71/246. This global observance highlights the role of food as not just nourishment, but as a cultural and environmental force. It encourages sustainable practices that respect local traditions, support eco-friendly food production, and promote healthy dietary habits. With active involvement from UNESCO and the FAO, the day underscores the connection between culinary heritage, environmental stewardship, and responsible consumption. It aims to educate people about choosing food that is not only delicious but also sustainable and socially inclusive.
