World Habitat Day
October 2, 2023
World Habitat Day is held on the first Monday of October and launches Urban October. The day centers around the global observance, which is held in a different country each year with keynote speakers and roundtable discussions focused on a specific theme. World Habitat Day was first celebrated in 1986 in Nairobi, Kenya, with the theme ‘Shelter is my right’.
On 2 October 2023, the Global Observance of World Habitat Day, under the theme “Resilient urban economies. Cities as drivers of growth and recovery”, will look at how cities can position their economies to benefit residents.
