NDTV
This year, World AIDS Day theme has been decided to mark the pivotal impact communities have had in shaping the HIV response.
World AIDS Day is observed every year on December 1 to spread awareness about Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) caused by Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and support those living with the disease. The first ever World AIDS Day was observed on December 1, 1988. This year, World Health Organisation (WHO) said that the theme is 'let communities lead'. The UN body said that the theme has been decided to mark the pivotal impact communities have had in shaping the HIV response.
World AIDS Day is a moment to reflect on the progress made in the fight against HIV/AIDS. Over the years, advancements in medical research, increased awareness and improved access to treatment have transformed the landscape of HIV/AIDS management. However, the day also prompts contemplation of the persisting challenges and the work that lies ahead.
Despite considerable progress, the stigma surrounding HIV/AIDS endures as a major hurdle. World AIDS Day encourages open conversations, challenging misconceptions, and fostering a more supportive environment for those affected.
