Organizer: University Institute of Liberal Arts and Humanities, Chandigarh University
World Poetry Day is celebrated every year on 21st March to provide budding minds with an opportunity to unbridle their ravishing poetic talent to celebrate the spirit of creativity. Poetry is a form of art that encompasses all known languages around the world. It is a window to look at the world and understand its beauty through the words. UNESCO first adopted 21 March as World Poetry Day during its 30th General Conference in Paris in 1999, with the aim of supporting linguistic diversity through poetic expression and increasing the opportunity for endangered languages to be heard. On this occasion poetic activities are carried out all over the world to bring together the poetic voices. It is also celebrated in some parts of the world as a day to honour the famous poet Virgil.
University Institute of Liberal Arts and Humanities @ Chandigarh University invites spiritual enthusiasts from all over the country to participate in the Poetry Recitation Competition to be held to celebrate the World Poetry Day, on March 21, 2023. The competition will provide students with an opportunity to unbridle their ravishing poetic talent to celebrate the spirit of creativity.
