Humanity can be defined as a basic quality that differentiates human beings from other living organisms. Simply put, it is a trait that is expected to be exposed by humans. Humanity is a collective term to represent human beings’ love, affection, compassion, and concern for others. When given a choice between being right and being kind, a person with humanity chooses to be kind without much contemplation. The unconditional love for all human beings is the foundation of humanity. It eliminates the consciousness of gender, religion, caste, nationality, etc. from the minds of the people and connects everyone under one umbrella term – ‘humans’.
Humanity is not just about the actions that are happening between human beings; it’s also about how human beings interact with the whole world. Who are ‘humanitarians’? Any person who seeks to promote the welfare of all human beings is called a humanitarian. Humanitarians are the greatest blessings to a nation. The purity of our planet has been sustained with the presence of numerous great humanitarians in it. Some of the popular humanitarians are Mother Teresa, Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, Oskar Schindler and Malala Yousafzai.
People all over the world celebrate the spirit of humanity on World Humanitarian Day. World Humanitarian Day promotes human welfare, and honours everyone who engages in humanitarian services in their lives. It is a commemoration of the day in 2003 when twenty-two workers were killed in a bombing at the United Nations headquarters in Baghdad.
