EVERY DAY A VOICE (Phyland, 2026)
Every day is a voice day…
for work and for art,
for speaking, singing
and being heard.
On April 16, we listen wider: to the bright, the fragile, the fierce, the different
a chorus of colours crossing oceans,
each voice carrying a world.
We tend them like living instruments:
kept supple, not strained,
used with care, not worn thin.
We speak to connect, not to divide,
to reach, not to drown out
and we remember, with quiet gratitude,
that our voices can also be our votes.

| Details of your World Voice Day Event | Join our Global Perceptual Voice Evaluation Marathon! Hosted on All-Voiced (all-voiced.com), this global online event returns for its second edition, inviting participants worldwide to take part in auditory-perceptual voice evaluation throughout World Voice Day. Participants will not only contribute to research, but also actively train their listening skills through real-time feedback, allowing them to compare their perceptual judgments with aggregated evaluations from expert raters. All assessments collected will contribute to the Global Database of Auditory-Perceptual Voice Assessments, supporting research on how voice qualities are perceived across different cultures, contexts, and levels of expertise. A real-time counter will track global participation, and a dynamic map will highlight where evaluations are being submitted. To ensure accessibility across all time zones, the event will run from 00:00 in the first place where April 16 begins (UTC+14) until 23:59 in the last place where April 16 ends (UTC-12), spanning a total of 50 hours globally. Learn. Compare. Contribute. Let’s make World Voice Day truly international. |
