Happiness day --happy smiles


International Day of Happiness

In 2012, the United Nations (UN) declared March 20 to be observed as the International Day of Happiness.


The day recognizes that happiness is a fundamental human goal, and calls upon countries to approach public policies in ways that improve the well being of all peoples.

By designating a special day for happiness, the UN aims to focus world attention on the idea that economic growth must be inclusive, equitable, and balanced, such that it promotes sustainable development, and alleviates poverty. Additionally the UN acknowledges that in order to attain global happiness, economic development must be accompanied by social and environmental well being.

The 20th March is also World Oral Health Day 2015 with the theme, Smile for life!

Smiling goes so well with happiness so a perfect combination and has been already combined by Leicester who are working hard to improve oral health in the city.
