World Teachers’ Day: Why It Is Celebrated On October 5

World Teachers’ Day on October 5 marks the anniversary of the adoption of the 1966 ILO and UNESCO recommendation concerning the status of teachers. The recommendations set benchmarks with respect to the rights and responsibilities of teachers and standards for their initial preparation and further education, recruitment, employment and teaching and learning conditions.

The recommendation, according to the UNESCO website, concerning the status of higher-education teaching personnel was adopted in 1997 to complement the 1966 recommendation by covering teaching personnel in higher education. World Teachers’ Day has been celebrated since 1994.
