Digital Desk: Every year on 11TH December , the world celebrate International Mountain Day, this day reminds people just how important mountains are to sustaining life. Owing to the United Nations, this event was launched in 2003 and is aimed at raising awareness of the importance of the preservation of mountain environments, the sustainable development of mountain regions, and the solving of the problems that threaten these territories.
Mountain systems, home to 50% of global biodiversity hot spots and 30% of key biodiversity areas, are central to global ecosystem health. They supply more than 50% of the human population’s water, fuel hydropower stations, and are the birthplace of six key crop commodities: maize, potatoes, barley, sorghum, tomatoes, and apples. That they also acted as cultural and spiritual symbols can therefore tell a lot about why they have to be preserved as some of the human historical structures.
For 2024, the congregation selected the theme, Mountain Solutions for a Sustainable Future: Innovation, Adaptation, and Youth, to encourage innovation and empower the youths. Through creating job opportunities, offering training, and promoting entrepreneurship, the day aims to provide youth with the necessary means to restore and preserve the mountain resources in the future.
However, mountain areas are now facing challenges like climate change, deforestation, uncontrolled tourism, and mining. International Mountain Day is a reminder for governments, organizations, and people to take care of these bio-sensitive regions by using conservation from local levels to the global level. From the launch of the United Nations’s Agenda 21 in 1992 and the International Year of Mountains in 2002, this day provides a strong mandate and impetus to create consciousness and commitment to protect such impressive terrains.
Mountains both give people life and are symbolic of strength, culture, and existence. With the help of them, millions of species will continue to exist, and so will many important cultural and spiritual traditions. International Mountain Day 2024 calls for action to work collectively for sustainable solutions so that these mountains continue to be a source of strength in the future for the people in the world.
