Children's Day

A socialist holiday, observed with school events and the reminder that 30% of Lao children are stunted due to malnutrition. The day is both celebration and call to action, and the government uses it to promote child health and education.

Jour du Beignet

The fried doughnut that Brazzaville runs on. Every morning, the beignet ladies set up their stations at intersections, school gates, and market entrances. The dough puffs in hot oil, the sugar coats the outside, and the inside stays soft and slightly hollow. One beignet is a snack. Three beignets is breakfast. Five beignets is a commitment.

Animals of South Sudan Day

You see the Nile crocodiles, African buffalo, and white rhinoceros that inhabit South Sudan's wetlands and savannas. You observe that cattle, goats, and camels are the animals most commonly kept by pastoral communities throughout South Sudan. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
