June 22 – World Bathing Day. Looking forward to World Safe ePay Day.

 What are your plans for World Bathing Day?

         Please note that World Bathing Day is not in the calendar  of UN Remembrance / Observances.

         World Bathing Day is an initiative of a private organization



         There is a petition in progress to United Nations to include World Bathing Day in its calendar.

         This means private organizations do take the initiative to designate a day to focus on a particular idea/theme.

         A focused day on a particular idea/theme is a powerful tool to spread the word about the benefits of the idea/theme.

         Simply put, observances are remembrance, awareness, and celebration days or events that are not normally days off work. These events are inherently different from public holidays. This means folks can do their routine work, but for some time, the focus is on a particular theme/idea/thought.

While observances in the US such as Halloween and Valentine’s Day don’t mean a day off, they do impact business demand across industries.

Imagine the impact these events have not just within a single territory or even country, but globally–  each with their own regional observances you might not have insight into.

So, see the impact ‘World Safe ePay Day’ can have across the world.

More and more financial transactions are moving from the physical realm to digital realm.

Designating a day as World Safe ePay Day has multiple benefits.

The top 4 benefits of World Safe ePay Day can be summarised as follows:

Benefit 01) Promotion of Cybersecurity Awareness

Benefit 02) Enhancement of  Customer Confidence

Benefit 03) Support for Economic Growth and Financial Inclusion

Benefit 04) Strengthening Global Cooperation.

Our country is the leader in Digital Transactions and flag of World Safe ePay Day can be first unveiled in our country.

         World Safe ePay Day is an opportunity to raise global awareness and celebration of secure electronic payments.

In an era where financial transactions increasingly occur in the digital realm, this observance can  highlight the importance of safety and reliability in electronic payment systems worldwide.

**World Bathing Day on June 22** celebrates the diverse rituals and traditions of bathing, cleansing, and rejuvenation, while highlighting the critical issue of clean water access, as one in three people globally lack it.

 

Celebrated in over 50 countries, participants share photos on social media to raise awareness of water’s cultural and historical significance.

 

The $56 billion hot springs industry promotes World Bathing Day events, encouraging the sharing of bathing images on Instagram using #worldbathingday.

 

This day also addresses the severe health consequences of limited access to clean bathing water, such as the daily deaths of 1,000 children from water-related diseases and the extensive time women and girls spend gathering water, which affects their education and hope.

Created by the Bathe the World Foundation and supported by the GWI Hot Springs Initiative, World Bathing Day aims to unite people through the practice of hot springs bathing.

This act highlights the interconnectedness of community and planetary wellbeing. The concept of World Bath Day took off in  2018, and  the event has drawn participants from across the globe, emphasizing humanity’s interdependent relationship with water.

 

In conjunction with World Bathing Day, the concept of ** World Safe ePay Day ** is being developed.

This proposed observance aims to raise awareness about secure online payment practices.

Just as World Bathing Day highlights the importance of clean water, World Safe ePay Day would emphasize the necessity of secure financial transactions in our increasingly digital world.

 

Promoting safe e-payment methods can protect individuals and communities from cyber threats, ensuring that the convenience of online transactions does not compromise security.

By recognizing both days, we can draw parallels between the essential resources of water and secure financial systems, both critical for the wellbeing and advancement of society.
