World AIDS Day
World AIDS Day has been observed every year on December 1 since 1988. This worldwide effort draws people together in solidarity to pay tribute to the millions of people living with HIV/AIDS, raise awareness of the global impact of HIV/AIDS, and celebrate victories that are allowing more people to live longer and healthier lives.
This year’s theme, “Putting Ourselves to the Test: Achieving Equity to End HIV,” focuses on collective responsibility and actions required to eliminate the disparities and inequities that create barriers to HIV testing, prevention, and access to HIV care.
