Hi kids,
Fraternity means when we unite to support each other like brothers and sisters. The International Day of Human Fraternity is celebrated every year to remember that all humans should respect and love each other. On this day we remember that the human race is facing the same problems all around the world such as violence, wars, pollution and pandemics. When people of different beliefs gather to pray together and discuss world problems together, they can make the world more just and peaceful.
