Creativity is fundamental to human development. A resource with the power not only to enrich our quality of life and connect us with others, but also to advance solutions to the greatest challenges of our time. World Creativity and Innovation Day, an annual event celebrated on 21 April, invites us to embrace human creativity and innovation as indispensable drivers of a sustainable, inclusive future for all.
