Day 2005, ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN |
The
Commonwealth Day is celebrated each year on the second Monday
in March. Its purpose is to promote understanding about
global issues, international co-operation and the work of
the modern Commonwealth. It also aims to increase the involvement
and knowledge of young people about the Commonwealth through
cultural exchange. It is a medium for bridging the future
and reducing regional conflicts by advancing cultural understanding.
Each
year a different theme is chosen for Commonwealth Day by the
Joint Commonwealth Societies’ Council, which is made
up of more than 20 Commonwealth organisations. These themes
are aimed at helping the citizens of the Commonwealth to appreciate
their diversity and work together.
