The day honours all humanitarians including those who have lost their lives caring for others. World Humanitarian Day was established by the General Assembly of the UN in 2008 and was first observed in August 2009. The date of August 19 is the anniversary date of the 2003 Canal Hotel bombing in Baghdad where twenty-two people lost their lives including, the UN‟s High Commissioner for Human Rights and the Special Representative of the Secretary-General to Iraq, Sergio Vieira de Mello. Why is humanitarian aid so desperately needed today? The total number of people affected by natural disasters has risen over the past decade and, according to the UN, about 211 million people are directly affected each year. Women and children are especially at risk because of ongoing struggles with gender discrimination, poverty, insecurity, hunger, poor health and environmental decline. Global challenges such as job insecurity, prices rises and the growing number of refugees, increase the need for humanitarians each year.

Sometimes people gift useless presents that end up in the drawer untouched or unused - that’s why it is very important to ask the person you are gifting what they need before you buy it. I know it is inappropriate for people to specify what they want for their birthdays, weddings, baby showers or any other occasion, but if you ask me directly what I want for my birthday or any celebration, I will answer without any hesitation - money. I know a lot of people would like to answer the same, but they are too shy to admit it because it’s kind of a social taboo. But seriously - who doesn’t like to receive money anytime and anywhere, even if the amount is very little! I believe nowadays everybody needs extra money - a small amount of money is better than receiving a gift that you don’t use or need. It doesn’t matter how much money you receive - small amounts from several people will add up, and you will end up with a decent amount of money.

He was raised in Lincolnshire, England. Coming from a family of doctors it was expected of him to take up the same profession, but reports of Captain Cook’s discoveries and the reading of Daniel Defoe’s book “Robinson Crusoe”, moved him to go to sea. Matthew began his naval career in 1789 at the age of 15 when he joined the Royal Navy. Flinders served on three different ships before sailing with Captain Bligh on the Providence to Tahiti to hone his navigation skills. On this voyage he estab- lished himself as a first class navigator and an excellent cartographer. This was also Flinders first look at Australian waters landing at Adventure Bay, Tasmania in 1792 before returning to England. In 1795 he sailed aboard the HMS Reliance carrying newly appointed Governor of New South Wales, Captain John Hunter, to the convict settle- ment at Botany Bay. Onboard during the voyage Flinders befriended George Bass. With Bass, Flinders made a number of small boat journeys and refined the charts of the New South Wales coast. In 1798 Flinders and Bass set out in the Norfolk to explore the extent of the strait between the mainland and Tasmania.
