This is a time to support people living with HIV, remember those we have lost and keep working towards a future free of stigma. Plant a tree as a living sign of hope and solidarity.
It’s World Aids day💃🏾 Another day to raise awareness on HIV/AIDS
I remember one time I was talking with my neighbor and she was telling me about how she volunteers with an organization that offers sensitization, advocacy and support to provide living with aids.
Today 1 December is World AIDS Day, which is a global movement to unite people in the fight against HIV and AIDS. Since 1988, communities have stood together on World AIDS Day to show strength and solidarity against HIV stigma and to remember lives lost. 😄🌳❤️💚
The red ribbon is the universal symbol of awareness and support for people living with HIV. It was first devised in 1991, when twelve artists met to discuss a new project for Visual AIDS, a New York HIV-awareness arts organisation. It was there that they came up with what would become one of the most recognised symbols of the decade: the red ribbon, worn to signify awareness and support for people living with HIV. The artists wanted to create a visual expression of compassion for people living with HIV and chose red for its boldness, and for its symbolic associations with passion, the heart and love. https://worldaidsday.org https://www.who.int/campaigns/world-aids-day/world-aids-day-2023
