WORLD INTERNATIONAL DAYS
LIST OF IMPORTANT WORLD INTERNATIONAL DAYS TO INTEGRATE IN YOUR 2023 MARKETING CALENDAR
A well-defined marketing calendar is a valuable tool to plan and track cohesive and effective campaigns.
As an international digital marketing specialist, when building a marketing calendar, I integrate amongst others some of the most important world international days. These are specific dates designated by agencies of the United Nations (such as UNESCO, UNICEF, FAO, etc.) in order to promote and make people aware of certain events or movements in society.
