Zero Discrimination Day 2018

Celebrate March 1 is Zero Discrimination Day, a worldwide event that promotes diversity and recognizes that everyone counts.

Organizations like the United Nations (UN) actively promote this day with activities to celebrate everyone’s right to live a full life with dignity regardless of age, gender, sexuality, nationality, ethnicity, skin color, height, weight, profession, education, and beliefs.

Many countries have laws against discrimination but it's still a problem in all layers of society in every country in the world. Many countries have and still use discrimination as a way of governing.

The symbol for Zero Discrimination Day is the butterfly, widely used by people to share their stories and photos as a way to end discrimination and work towards positive transformation.
