11. On which date is World Population Day observed?

Discuss
World Population Day is observed annually on July 11th. It was established by the United Nations in 1989 to raise awareness about population issues. The date was chosen to commemorate the day in 1987 when the world’s population reached 5 billion. Since then, it has served as an important platform for addressing topics such as reproductive health, family planning, and sustainable development, influencing policies and public opinion globally.
