    WHAT IS IT?
    The International Day of Tolerance,

    1995 as an annual day to raise
    awareness and prevent racial
    discrimination.
    WHY DO WE
    CELEBRATE IT?
    Objective
    ,We celebrate the International Day for Tolerance every November 16
    to help spread tolerance and raise awareness of any intolerance that
    may still be prevalent in the world today. Although we should be
    tolerant every day, it’s always good to have one occasion to remind us
    to give appreciation to other cultures around the world. Only that way,
    can the world truly be in peace and harmony.
