International Day Against Police Brutality (I.D.A.P.B.) is a global observance observed every year on March 15 and is a focal day of solidarity against police brutality. The first observation of the day began in 1997. Police brutality refers to the wanton use of excessive force by a police officer. It is one of the most prevalent forms of police misconduct and violence.

Last year, police killed at least 1,096 people in the U.S.—the most in recorded history.

Housing, health, and education.
