2 World Science Day for Peace and Development- November 10 th, 2013 Background: From the magnanimous universe with all the galaxies, the planets and mysteries within it down to the minutest of the quarks and neutrinos, from the rising steam from the tea cups to the splattering rain of monsoon; everything in our universe has its own mechanisms and its own logics. To a scientist s mind, these mechanisms and logics are like locked chambers that have to be explored and understood. Every marvel of this universe holds within itself secrets waiting to be revealed and questions waiting to be answered. The World Science Day for Peace and Development also aims at raising public awareness of the importance of science and to bridge the gap between science and societies. Irina Bokova, DG UNESCO For this very purpose, World Science Day for Peace and Development is celebrated worldwide on 10 November each year. It was established by UNESCO in 2001 and it offers an opportunity to demonstrate to the wider public why science is relevant to their daily lives and to engage them in debate on related issues. The purpose of this day is to renew national and international commitment of science for peace and raising public awareness of the importance of science and to bridge the gap between science and societies. Placing science as its top most priority, UNESCO aims at mobilizing the full capability of the nations to employ science for purposes of peace. Science has become the eyes and ears of humans in this universe. It is because of science that we know that universe expands, diseases are curable, rockets reach space and that the world is a better place. Using this immense power of science for purposes of peace forms the preamble of this day. Since its inception, World Science Day has also generated concrete projects, programmes and funding for science around the world. Several ministries have announced an increase in spending on science, for instance, or the creation of a university or research body. Celebrating this day all over the world has also brought scientists of the nations at conflict to come and work together under the umbrella of science. Every year national and international organizations, governments, media and educations systems are allowed to celebrate the day a sper their own par. Theme for WSDPD-2013 is Science for Water Cooperation: Sharing Data, Knowledge and Innovations. On this important event, Irina Bokova said, Water cooperation is not only a technical or scientific issue. It is about supporting human rights. It is about preventing disease and promoting gender equality, it is about fighting poverty. Fundamentally, it is about strengthening the
3 foundations for peace, through cooperation between States and across regions. These goals guide UNESCO as it leads the International Year of Water Cooperation on behalf of UN Water. For peace and development, Science may prove to be a solution to formulate efficient ways of protecting such globally common resources as the atmosphere, oceans, freshwater, biodiversity and natural cycles. Science and technology have contributed immensely to the overall experience of humankind so far. We can only hope mankind will be competent to use the contributions of science in a way that will bring about welfare, progress, and peace for all. Keeping this theme in the mind, National Academy of Young Scientists (NAYS) and The Emerging Nations Science Foundation (ENSF) joined their hands with United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and trying to raise public awareness about the significance of science and to overcome the gap between science and societies to share the data, knowledge and innovation.
