What will you be inspired to do?

World Values Day is an annual campaign to increase the awareness and practice of values around the world. Values are increasingly the focus of public debate and discussion, but their role in our lives and their importance are not always fully understood.

World Values Day provides an opportunity to think on our most deeply held values and explore and act on them with others.

This Year’s Theme is Values in Action

The theme of Values in Action was chosen for this year’s campaign just before the coronavirus crisis exploded and confronted us with a life-and-death threat to every corner of our planet.

Times of crisis bring out the best in us. Superficial concerns fall away and we rediscover what really matters: our values. The positive response of so many individuals, groups and organisations has been inspiring. Everywhere the vast majority of people have come together, supporting each other and their communities with determination and courage: they have dug down to their core values and put them into action.

We have been so inspired by all the #ValuesHeroes around the world who have shown the power of putting their values into action in crisis. Let’s make it a habit. What will you be inspired to do this World Values Day?

Take a Values Break!



Take a Break

Find a few minutes to wind down, clear your mind and think about the values that are important to you and your wellbeing.

For some suggestions on which values you could think about, take a look at our Take a Values Break Guide.

Choose a Value

Identify a value that is really important to you and reflect on whether you are really living that value, both in relation to yourself and to others.

Read some examples in our Take a Values Break Guide.



Share An Action Based On This Value

Think of a way to put that value into action and make it a bigger part of your life. Keep it as simple and practical as you can.

Then tell the world! Share on social with #WorldValuesDay – use images, gifs, or take a selfie with our pre-made template during or after the action.
