Concord Day is a public holiday in Niger on April 24 yearly. The holiday commemorates the anniversary of the Peace Accord between the Government of Niger and the Tuareg rebel groups.
Tuareg people live in many Saharan countries, and the severe famine in 1984-1985 forced them to change the traditional migration routes. However, that increased the conflicts with other groups.
The famine, economic crisis, and the government's weakness finally led to Tuareg's rebels in 1990. After a series of negotiations, on April 24, 1995, the government reached peace accords with most Tuareg groups, although sporadic attacks continued until 1999. The peace accords marked the end of most fighting.
