The United Nations Day for South-South Cooperation is observed on September 12 each year.

International Day for South-South Cooperation in the United States

Date: September 12th

History: The International Day for South-South Cooperation is a global observance adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 2003. The date commemorates the adoption of the Buenos Aires Plan of Action for Promoting and Implementing Technical Cooperation among Developing Countries on September 12, 1978.

Traditions: South-South cooperation refers to the exchange of resources, technology, and knowledge between developing countries, also known as countries of the Global South. The United States observes this day primarily through its involvement in international organizations and its support for development initiatives.

On this day, activities may include:

  • Educational events and seminars to raise awareness about the importance of South-South cooperation.
  • Discussions on best practices and strategies to enhance collaboration between developing nations.
  • UN agencies, think tanks, and development organizations may host or participate in forums or virtual conferences.

What People Do: In the U.S., government bodies like USAID might reflect on their roles in facilitating South-South cooperation. NGOs, universities, and international development stakeholders engage with partners across Global South countries to foster mutual support.

The day is more about advocacy and strategic planning than public celebrations. Individuals working within relevant sectors might participate in discussions or attend events focused on enhancing collaborative efforts between developing countries.
