December 1: World Aids Day
World Aids Day is celebrated on December 1 every year in order to unite people worldwide in the fight against HIV. It allows people to show support for people living with HIV, and to commemorate those who have died from an AIDS-related illness. This day was founded in the year 1988. It was the first ever global health day.
World AIDS Day is important because it reminds the public and government that HIV has not gone away – there is still a vital need to raise money, increase awareness, fight prejudice and improve education. According to the website of hiv.org, this year's theme for World AIDS Day is 'Ending the HIV/AIDS epidemic: Resilience and Impact.'
