Current Affairs - Important Days - Discussion

The International Day of Happiness is observed globally on March 20 each year, as recognised by the United Nations. This day emphasizes the importance of happiness and well-being as universal human goals and highlights that economic growth alone is not sufficient for development. It promotes a balanced approach that includes social equity, environmental sustainability, and good governance. The day also coincides with the release of the World Happiness Report, which evaluates global happiness levels based on factors such as income, social support, and trust in institutions, helping policymakers understand and improve the quality of life.
