International Day of Family Remittances - observance event

The UN-adopted International Day of Family Remittances (IDFR) will be observed on 16 June at 9 am EST (3 pm CEST), in recognition of the tireless abnegation of almost 200 million migrant workers who send money home for the wellbeing of their families in communities of origin, and who have demonstrated unprecedented resilience in these times of crisis.

The event will also mark the 2021 IDFR campaign, which will focus on "Recovery and resilience through digital and financial inclusion." Get involved and share your experiences here: https://familyremittances.org/get-involved/
