Positivity and energy were the order of the day at the Happiness Days.
Happiness Days were held in Hafnarfjörður for the first time in autumn 2023, on the occasion of the European Week of Sport, which is held annually from 23rd to 30th September. The idea for special Happiness Days in Hafnarfjörður was conceived by the steering group of the Healthy Town of Hafnarfjörður, partly based on certain indications that the country's happiness index was declining. A healthy lifestyle and a positive attitude contribute to better mental and physical well-being and increase people's happiness. It was decided to launch a varied programme for these first Happiness Days, with education, encouragement, positivity, energy, experience and, above all, happiness at its core. A happiness walk, happiness workshops, a happiness swim and a happiness gong session were organised. There are plans to hold the Happiness Days again in the autumn, making them even bigger and better, and with the active participation of as many people as possible in the community.
International Happiness Day is on 20 March.
International Happiness Day is on 20 March each year. The day was first observed at the initiative of the United Nations in 2013 with the aim of raising awareness of happiness and well-being as an important objective for individuals and governments around the world. The United Nations General Assembly has urged member states to develop ways to place greater emphasis on happiness and well-being in public policymaking and to approach economic growth in a manner that promotes sustainable development, combat poverty and increase the well-being of all citizens.
