Day of sleep

The day of sleep is an initiative launched in 2000 by the association Tag des Schlafes eV to draw attention to the importance of sleep . The day of action takes place annually in Germany on June 21st .

The initiative was founded in 1999 when the two founders noticed “a considerable public information deficit”. Various sponsors were recruited (including Sanofi-Synthélabo ) and the day of action on June 21, 2000 under the motto "Disturbed sleep - consequences for the modern performance society" was presented to the public in the old Bundestag in Bonn . Since then, the day of action has taken place under a different motto every year.
