                    International justice day is celebrated on 17th of July to mark the epitome importance of giving justice to all those in need who fell victim to incidents such as genocide, crime, and the crimes that happens against humanity. The main reason why this day is celebrated is that on this very date the International Criminal Court was well established which was then followed by the Rome Statute adoption. Through a treaty, in 1998, the ICC or International Criminal Court was established, and ever since then almost 139 countries already signed the treaty of the Court and it was ratified by aproximately 80 states who are representatives of every region. The International Criminal Court understand the importance of creating awareness among people and uniting them to support justice meanwhile promoting the rights of the victims. Additionally, this date plays a major role in attracting all the people so that they would pay attention to serious global issues. On this day, although the main focus paying attention to the ICC, multiple events across several countries are hosted. Apart from that, this day is widely celebrated to pay respect to all the individuals who have been tirelessly working as advocates to protect the fundamentals human rights of the victims.                                                                                                     The World Day for Justice is seen on July 17th every year to perceive the strengthening system of international justice and furthermore to advance the freedoms of the victims. The theme for World Justice Day 2022 is 'Achieving Justice Through Formal Employment'. Around 60% of the world's employed populace acquire their livelihoods in the casual economy. These individuals need social protection and employee-related benefits. International Justice Day is celebrated to inspire individuals to meet up for justice. This day tell us that regardless of how various we are from one to another, with regards to justice, the entire world becomes one.                                                                                                                                                                                                                 International Criminal Court (ICC) is the first independent and permanent international court that can hear cases involving the serious alleged transgressions of international humanitarian law. This year's theme for the Day of International Justice is "Achieving Justice Through Formal Employment". The COVID-19 pandemic environment has become easier for humans to traverse thanks to technological advancements over the past ten years. Because to what the U.N. refers to as "digital labour platforms," which offer "income-generating possibilities and advantages from flexible work arrangements," employees are able to work from home. However, there is also an increased possibility that criminal activity will turn to digital methods, which is especially true given the continued stringent surveillance of pandemic-appropriate behaviour on the streets. According to experts, the true threat can be far away, which makes it much more important to raise awareness of criminal justice on a digital platform. Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where anyone is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress and degrade them, neither person nor property will be safe.                                                                                                                                         The International Justice Day , also known as World Day for International Justice, it emphasises the need of combating impunity and providing justice to the victims of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide. The day assumes significance because it is important to raise public awareness about justice and promote the rights of victims. The day also calls for people from all around the world to focus on concerns that are important. The ICC does not replace national courts, but it is accessible when a country can not or will not conduct investigations or punish culprits.
