Why we celebrate World Teachers' Day?


World Teachers' Day


 On October 5th each year, we commemorate the adoption of the 1966 ILO/UNESCO Recommendation concerning the Status of Teachers and the 1997 UNESCORecommendation concerning the Status of Higher-Education Teaching Personnel. These instruments set forth the rights and responsibilities of teachers as well as outline international standards for the most important professional, social, ethical and material concerns of teachers.
