The United Nations has designated the first Monday of October as World Habitat Day, a call to people around the world to join together to exchange ideas and advocate for the need and importance of housing. The United Nations’ chosen theme for 2010 for events in the host city of Shanghai, China and the rest of the world is “Better City, Better Life.”
