We welcome you to join us today on World Humanitarian Day to watch a short video and write down a word that describes you.

In 2008, the United Nations Office of the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), named August 19th, today’s date, World Humanitarian Day. The four principles OCHA lists as key in humanitarian action include Humanity, Neutrality, Impartiality, and Operational Independence.

In association with OCHA’s Humanitarian Day, CARE has launched a Twitter campaign asking supporters to tweet in pictures of a word that describes them. Our team at Vivanista has taken the opportunity to share a few words that describe us, below you will find a few pictures along with the World Humanitarian Day video that OCHA posted.




Challenge: Watch video & write down a word that describes you on blank paper. Snap a photo & post below, on twitter or facebook!
