Aunque para millones de personas se trata de una tradici\u00f3n instalada desde hace d\u00e9cadas, pocos conocen que esta fecha tuvo un origen completamente argentino y naci\u00f3 a partir de un acontecimiento que marc\u00f3 a toda la humanidad: la llegada del hombre a la Luna.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Cada a\u00f1o, bares, restaurantes y hogares se convierten en escenarios de festejos entre amigos. Incluso, para muchos comercios gastron\u00f3micos, el D\u00eda del Amigo representa una de las jornadas de mayor movimiento del a\u00f1o, con reservas realizadas con varios d\u00edas de anticipaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Sin embargo, detr\u00e1s de esta costumbre existe una historia que comenz\u00f3 hace m\u00e1s de medio siglo y que tuvo como protagonista a un odont\u00f3logo bonaerense convencido de que un hecho hist\u00f3rico pod\u00eda unir a la humanidad.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>La idea que naci\u00f3 con la llegada a la Luna<\/h2>\n<p>El creador del D\u00eda del Amigo fue\u00a0<b>Enrique Ernesto Febbraro<\/b>, odont\u00f3logo, profesor de psicolog\u00eda, filosof\u00eda e historia, adem\u00e1s de m\u00fasico y locutor. El 20 de julio de 1969 observ\u00f3 por televisi\u00f3n la llegada del Apolo 11 a la Luna y entendi\u00f3 que aquel acontecimiento no pertenec\u00eda \u00fanicamente a Estados Unidos, sino que era un logro compartido por toda la humanidad.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Convencido de que ese momento representaba un s\u00edmbolo de uni\u00f3n entre los pueblos, decidi\u00f3 impulsar la creaci\u00f3n de una jornada dedicada a celebrar la amistad. Desde su consultorio de Lomas de Zamora redact\u00f3 y envi\u00f3 cerca de mil cartas a destinatarios de cien pa\u00edses proponiendo instaurar el 20 de julio como el D\u00eda del Amigo.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>La iniciativa tuvo una repercusi\u00f3n inesperada. Alrededor de 700 personas respondieron positivamente a aquellas cartas, lo que fortaleci\u00f3 la convicci\u00f3n de Febbraro de que la amistad pod\u00eda convertirse en un puente entre culturas y naciones. Con el paso de los a\u00f1os, la propuesta fue ganando reconocimiento institucional hasta consolidarse como una tradici\u00f3n profundamente arraigada en la Argentina.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Una celebraci\u00f3n que trascendi\u00f3 las fronteras<\/h2>\n<p>Con el tiempo, la celebraci\u00f3n dej\u00f3 de ser exclusivamente argentina y comenz\u00f3 a replicarse en otros pa\u00edses de Am\u00e9rica Latina e incluso en Espa\u00f1a. Brasil, Uruguay y Chile fueron algunos de los territorios donde la iniciativa tambi\u00e9n encontr\u00f3 aceptaci\u00f3n y se incorpor\u00f3 al calendario de efem\u00e9rides.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Si bien la\u00a0<b>Organizaci\u00f3n de las Naciones Unidas (ONU)<\/b>\u00a0estableci\u00f3 el\u00a0<b>30 de julio<\/b>\u00a0como el D\u00eda Internacional de la Amistad, en la Argentina el 20 de julio mantuvo su identidad propia gracias al impulso original de Enrique Febbraro y a la enorme aceptaci\u00f3n popular que alcanz\u00f3 desde fines del siglo pasado.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>La iniciativa tambi\u00e9n recibi\u00f3 reconocimiento oficial. En 1979 la Provincia de Buenos Aires dio un marco legal a la celebraci\u00f3n y, posteriormente, distintas instituciones p\u00fablicas y privadas contribuyeron a difundirla hasta convertirla en una de las fechas sociales m\u00e1s importantes del pa\u00eds.
