It is the day when citizens exercise their right to vote, making their voices heard by electing their representatives in government. The day is crucial for the functioning of a democratic society as it upholds the principle of government by the people. Events on Election Day typically include the opening of polling stations where citizens cast their ballots. It's a day that emphasizes the importance of civic participation, the power of each vote, and the responsibility of citizens to shape the future of their communities and country. Election Day is not just about casting a ballot; it's a celebration of democratic rights and an affirmation of the citizen's role in shaping governance and policy.

The day highlights the role of biosphere reserves as unique learning sites and sources of knowledge about sustainable development and biodiversity. On this day, organizations and communities around the world organize events to raise awareness of the importance of biosphere reserves. These reserves serve as examples of sustainable coexistence between humans and nature, demonstrating how the needs of society can be balanced with the conservation of biodiversity. International Biosphere Reserve Day also highlights the importance of cooperation between countries and communities in protecting natural resources and creating resilient ecosystems. This day reminds us of our responsibility to future generations to ensure the preservation of biosphere reserves and the natural wealth of our planet.
