World Radio Day is an observance day held annually on February 13
It was proclaimed on 3 November 2011 by UNESCO's 36th General Conference after originally being proposed by the Kingdom of Spain
UNESCO's Executive Board recommended to the UNESCO 36th session of the General Conference that it proclaim a World Radio Day at its 36th session, and that this day be celebrated by UNESCO on 13 February, the anniversary of the day the United Nations established United Nations Radio in 1946
In December 2012, The General Assembly of the UN endorsed the proclamation of World Radio Day, thereby becoming a Day to be celebrated by all UN agencies, funds and programmes and their partners.
World Radio Day is about celebrating radio, why we love it and why we need it today more than ever.
A day to remember the unique power of radio to touch lives and bring people together across every corner of the globe
