World Pulses Day HistoryWorld Pulses Day serves as a global celebration of the nutritional and environmental benefits that pulses offer. Recognising the vital role these protein-rich legumes play in promoting sustainable agriculture and addressing important issues such as food security, nutrition and climate change, the United Nations (UN) designated 2019 as the International Year of Pulses (IYP). This initiative aimed to champion the critical role of pulses in achieving the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by increasing public awareness, research and investment in the pulse industry. The history of World Pulses Day dates back to 2019 when it was established following the successful implementation of IYP. Acknowledging the success of IYP and the growing global interest in pulses, the UN General Assembly unanimously adopted a resolution declaring February 10th as World Pulses Day - a day to advocate for the continued significance and consumption of pulses around the world. Since its inception, World Pulses Day has seen an outpouring of support from governments, farmers, researchers and consumers alike, working collaboratively to ensure pulses become a staple part of diets on a global scale. Commemorated annually on February 10th, World Pulses Day provides an opportunity for the international community to celebrate the importance of pulses in ensuring a sustainable and healthy future.
