International Tea Day

International Tea Day

International Tea Day was observed annually on December 15.

It has been celebrated since 2005 in tea producing countries like India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Vietnam, Indonesia,Bangladesh, Kenya, Malawi, Malaysia, Uganda and Tanzania

International Tea Day aims to draw global attention of governments and citizens to the impact of the global tea trade on workers and growers, and has been linked to requests for price supports and fair trade

In 2015, the Indian government proposed expanding the observance of International Tea Day through the UN Food and Agriculture Organization

The United Nations General Assembly has designated May 21 as International Tea Day based on a proposal moved by India
