The International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People is observed annually on November 29. This day was established by the United Nations General Assembly in 1977. The date was chosen because it corresponds to the anniversary of the UN General Assembly's adoption of Resolution 181 (the Partition Resolution) in 1947, which aimed to divide Palestine into Jewish and Arab states, with Jerusalem as an international city.
The International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People is intended to draw attention to the plight of the Palestinian people, promote awareness of the issues they face, and encourage efforts to find a peaceful and just solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It is marked by various events, meetings, and activities organized by the United Nations and its member states, as well as civil society organizations around the world.
