Deda Ena Day on April 14th

"Deda Ena Day" on April 14th is a celebration of the Georgian script, one of the world's oldest, consisting of a unique 33-letter alphabet.

This day not only honors the script's inclusion in UNESCO's list of intangible cultural heritage of humanity since November 30, 2016, but also pays tribute to Iakob Gogebashvili, a visionary in Georgian education.
