World Aids Day

December 1, 2024

Red ribbon on pine leaves for World Aids Day

World AIDS Day, observed annually on December 1st, is a day dedicated to raising awareness about HIV/AIDS, supporting those living with the virus, and remembering those who have died from AIDS-related illnesses. Established in 1988, World AIDS Day is one of the oldest international health days and continues to play a vital role in educating people about HIV prevention, treatment, and stigma reduction.

While significant progress has been made in HIV treatment, with more people than ever before living long, healthy lives with HIV, there is still work to be done. The stigma surrounding HIV/AIDS remains a major barrier to testing and treatment. World AIDS Day serves as a platform for breaking down misconceptions, fighting prejudice, and highlighting the realities of living with HIV.

Each year, this day is marked with events, rallies, and campaigns around the globe, drawing attention to the global impact of HIV and advocating for improved access to care, especially in under-resourced areas. Governments, health organizations, and advocacy groups come together to reinforce the message of zero new infections, zero discrimination, and zero AIDS-related deaths.

On World AIDS Day, people are encouraged to wear the red ribbon, a symbol of solidarity with those affected by HIV/AIDS. Whether through social media campaigns, community events, or individual reflection, World AIDS Day is a moment for the world to unite in the ongoing fight against HIV/AIDS.
