January
In January, we’re focusing on the powerful connection between nutrition and overall wellbeing. As we begin the new year, it’s a perfect time to prioritise healthy eating habits that support both physical and mental health. By embracing nutrient-rich foods, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins, we can align our body’s needs with our goals for a vibrant, energised start to the year. This theme encourages individuals to converge their lifestyle choices with better nutrition, fostering a balanced and sustainable approach to health in 2025.

Awareness days in January
Time to raise awareness
Let’s take a moment to highlight the importance of awareness days
National Braille Day
Even under normal circumstances, persons with disabilities—one billion people worldwide— are less likely to access health care, education, employment and to participate in the community. They are more likely to live in poverty, experience higher rates of violence, neglect and abuse, and are among the most marginalized in any crisis-affected community.
Australia Day
On Australia Day, we reflect on our history, its highs and its lows. We respect the stories of others. And we celebrate our nation, its achievements and most of all, its people.
Holocaust Remembrance Day
Every year around 27 January, UNESCO pays tribute to the memory of the victims of the Holocaust and reaffirms its unwavering commitment to counter antisemitism, racism, and other forms of intolerance that may lead to group-targeted violence.
