World Teachers' Day being observed today

The World Teachers' Day is being observed today (Wednesday) across the globe aimed at expressing gratitude for the contributions of teachers. 

This year, the theme for the day is "The change of education begins with teachers".

On October 5th, 1966, the International Labor Organization (ILO) and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) signed a recommendation concerning the “status of teachers.” To recognize this significant anniversary and commemorate the signing of the 1966 document, UNESCO created International Teacher’s Day in 1994. 

The day highlights the importance of quality teachers, guiding future aspirants of this profession.
