World AIDS Day is observed every year on December 1st to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS, show support for people living with HIV, and remember those who have died from AIDS-related illnesses. It’s a global call to action to strengthen prevention, testing, treatment, and fight stigma and discrimination. The 2025 theme will be announced by UNAIDS and other global health partners closer to the date.
