What is World Anthropology Day?
World Anthropology Day, first celebrated in 2015 by the American Anthropological Association, is a global day to celebrate the discipline that studies what it means to be human. From archaeology at Çatalhöyük to medical anthropology in hospitals and design anthropology at tech firms, the field spans deep time and daily life. The day invites schools, universities and museums to host lectures, exhibitions and outreach events that introduce the world to anthropological work — and remind us that humans vary, and that the variation is worth understanding.
How to celebrate
