UN Spanish Language Day is observed annually on October 12.[1] The event was established by the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 2010 to seeking "to celebrate multilingualism and cultural diversity as well as to promote equal use of all six of its official working languages throughout the organization". October 12 was chosen as the date for the Spanish language as Spain’s National Day.[2]
