The International Tea Day aims to raise awareness of the long history and the deep cultural and economic significance of tea around the world. The goal of the day is to promote and foster collective actions to implement activities in favour of the sustainable production and consumption of tea and raise awareness of its importance in fighting hunger and poverty.
The resolution to celebrate this day on May 21 was adopted on December 21, 2019 by the United Nations. It is observed by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) and tea lovers across the world.
