==Common secular holidays== Other [[Secularity|secular]] holidays are observed regionally, nationally and across multi-country regions. The United Nations Calendar of Observances<ref>{{Cite web |last=Nations |first=United |title=List of International Days and Weeks |url=https://www.un.org/en/observances/list-days-weeks |access-date=2023-07-30 |website=United Nations |language=en}}</ref> dedicates decades to a specific topic, but also a complete year, month, week and days. Holidays dedicated to an observance such as the commemoration of the ending of [[World War II]], or the [[Shoah]], can also be part of the [[Reparations (transitional justice)|reparation]] obligation as per [[UN General Assembly Resolution 60/147]] Basic Principles and Guidelines on the Right to a Remedy and Reparation for Victims of Gross Violations of International Human Rights Law and Serious Violations of International Humanitarian Law.<ref>{{cite web |date=December 16, 2005 |title=Basic Principles and Guidelines on the Right to a Remedy and Reparation for Victims of Gross Violations of International Human Rights Law and Serious Violations of International Humanitarian Law |url=https://www.ohchr.org/EN/ProfessionalInterest/Pages/RemedyAndReparation.aspx |access-date=August 10, 2018}}</ref> Another example of a major secular holiday is the [[Lunar New Year]], which is celebrated across East Asia and South East Asia. Many other days are marked to celebrate events or people, but are not strictly holidays as time off work is rarely given; examples include [[Arbor Day]], [[International Workers' Day|International Worker's Day]] (celebrated sometimes under different names and on different days in different countries), and [[Earth Day]] (22 April).
