Monday, May 16th, 2022 marks the 17th observance of I Love to Listen Day
I Love to Listen Day (“Listening Day”) is observed around the world each year on May 16th. 2022 marks the 17th year of celebrating the power of listening.
This is not a day of silence. Established in 2005, Listening Day provides a globally shared date for all humanity to commit to building a culture where listening is a core value.
Too often the world celebrates speaking, reading, and writing and forgets our first communication and relationship skill, listening. I Love to Listen Day is the premier international listening day that strengthens the ideals of listening around the world.
The 2022 Listening Day celebration activity theme is, Loving Through Listening. On May 16th we are offering two activities. A listening party via zoom and the traditional poem “Today I Will Listen.” This poem was written to celebrate I Love to Listen Day. It was written in English and is translated into 18 languages and interpreted in Braille and American Sign language.
