The International Day in Support of Victims of Torture is observed every year on 26 June.

"2013 marks the 20th anniversary of the World Conference on Human Rights, which led to the adoption of the Vienna Declaration and Programme of Action and the establishment of a High Commissioner for Human Rights. Its creation gave a new impetus to the recognition of human rights principles which has seen fundamental progress in the promotion and protection of human rights. The United Nations Voluntary Fund for Victims of Torture — among the largest humanitarian trust funds of the United Nations — has assisted hundreds of thousands of victims of torture to rebuild their lives".
