WORLD POPULATION DAY - JULY 11 2016
2016 Theme: Investing in teenage girls.
In 1989, the Governing Council of the United Nations Development
Programme recommended that 11 July be observed by the international
community as World Population Day, a day to focus attention on the
urgency and importance of population issues. This year's theme is 'Investing in teenage girls.'
Teenage girls around the world face enormous challenges. Many are considered by their communities or parents to be ready for marriage and motherhood. Many are forced from school, damaging their future prospects. Even among girls who stay in school, access to basic information about their health, human rights and reproductive rights
can be hard to come by, leaving them vulnerable to illness, injury and
exploitation. These challenges are exacerbated among marginalized girls,
such as members of ethnic minorities or those living in poverty or
remote areas.
Yet when teenage girls are empowered, when they know about their
rights and are given the tools to succeed, they become agents of
positive change in their communities.
UNFPA's programmes aim to end child marriage, curb adolescent
pregnancy, and to empower girls to make informed choices about their
health and lives. In 2015 alone, UNFPA programmes helped 11.2 million
girls between ages 10 and 19 gain access to sexual and reproductive
health services and information.
"Leaders and communities must focus on and stand up for the human
rights of the most marginalized teenage girls, particularly those who
are poor, out of school, exploited, or subjected to harmful traditional
practices, including child marriage," UNFPA Executive Director Dr.
Babatunde Osotimehin said. "Marginalized girls are vulnerable to poor
reproductive health and more likely to become mothers while still
children themselves. They have a right to understand and control their
own bodies and shape their own lives.

MORE PEOPLE ARE ADDED TO THE PLANET EVERY DAY...
Every second worldwide, five people are born and two people die, leaving three more humans to inhabit the earth. That’s approximately 180 more people per minute and more than 237,000 more people hungry for dinner each night. How long can Mother Earth provide for this? The world population is 7.2 billion and grows by 80 million a year.
The Global Footprint Network estimates that we are already overusing planetary resources. In terms of renewable resources and the Earth’s capacity to absorb carbon, toxic chemicals, and other forms of pollution, we will need two Earth’s by 2030 to sustain us. Our current growth path is unsustainable. The warning signs are all around us, as rivers and lakes shrink, water tables fall, carbon emissions rise, deserts expand, forests shrink, and fisheries collapse.World Population Day 2016 would be celebrated all over the world by the people on 11th of July at Monday.
World population day is an international level awareness campaign being celebrated all over the world to call people on stage to know the reason of this exploding population year by year as well as solve the big mistake of whole human fraternity. This great awareness event is to bring a population revolution globally as well as breaking sleep of all the deeply slept people to pay their full attention and help in combating this population issue.
