World Science Day for Peace and Development is celebrated annually on November 10th. It reflects the growing recognition of the vital role science plays in shaping sustainable societies, achieving peace, and strengthening social cohesion. Furthermore, it serves as a reminder of the relevance of science to our daily lives, highlighting citizen participation, access to knowledge, and procedural transparency as essential prerequisites for scientific progress.
