Important Days
World AIDS Day, observed every year on 1 December, is an international day dedicated to raising awareness of the AIDS epidemic caused by the spread of HIV infection. It is an opportunity for people around the world to unite and show support for people living with HIV, remember those who have died from AIDS-related illnesses, and advocate for increased efforts to prevent new infections. The day enables people to educate themselves and others about HIV transmission, prevention, testing, treatment and the stigma and discrimination faced by people living with the virus. Through campaigns, events and community activities, World AIDS Day plays a vital role in breaking down barriers, encouraging dialogue and promoting understanding. World AIDS Day serves as a rallying call for increased awareness, funding and action towards ending AIDS as a public health threat by 2030, as outlined in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
