International Mother Language Day, approved at the 1999 UNESCO General Conference, is celebrated each year on 21 February since 2000. It is to raise awareness to preserve and honour languages and cultural diversity around the world. This day is associated with the memory of the movement and sacrifice of students in Bangladesh in 1952 regarding the issue of language preservation.
