International Day of the Girl Child is coming up.

About International Day of the Girl Child

International Day of the Girl Child is one of the international days on the United Nations list. The UN uses these days to draw attention to an issue and to what people around the world are doing about it.

In 2027 it falls on a Monday; in 2028 it’s on Wednesday 11 October, and in 2029 on Thursday 11 October. Because it’s a Monday this time, wherever it’s a day off it makes a long weekend of at least three days. Also in October 2027: Columbus Day and Indigenous Peoples’ Day (11 Oct), Thanksgiving (Canada) (11 Oct) and Yom Kippur (11 Oct).
