Chad Edition
Fete du Jarret de Boeuf leads today's complete edition for Chad.
Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
Jarret de boeuf is the beef shank stew that is the centerpiece of every Chadian celebration worth its name. The meat is slow-cooked until it falls from the bone, the sauce is rich with peanut paste and tomato, and the portion is large enough to remind you that in Chad, hospitality is measured in kilograms.
You encounter Timor-Leste's unique wildlife featuring the Timor deer, Philippine eagle, and various endemic bird species found nowhere else on earth. You see that local families primarily keep dogs, cats, and chickens as practical household pets. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
