AIDS to No AIDS<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The first step towards change is awareness. The second is acceptance.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

-Nathaniel Branden<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

World AIDS Day was the first ever global health day, designated on 1st December every year since 1988. It is an international\u00a0day dedicated to raising\u00a0awareness\u00a0of the\u00a0AIDS pandemic caused by the spread of HIV infection. The\u00a0day allows people to show their support for those living with HIV and to have time to remember those who have died from it.<\/p>\n

\n

According to the data of 2017, AIDS has killed 28.9\u00a0million to 41.5\u00a0million people worldwide, and an estimated 36.7\u00a0million people are living with HIV,\u00a0making it one of the most important global public health issues in recorded history. The world together is fighting against the HIV AIDS today.<\/p>\n

\n

Students of IILM University took an initiative to spread awareness on World AIDS Day! The theme was “AIDS to No AIDS”, where the students had displayed a big Red Ribbon which signifies “AIDS”. The red ribbon is the universal symbol of awareness and support for people living with HIV.\u00a0Students placed a box full of small white ribbons along with red ribbon. The objective was to spread awareness and a message to the society. It was an opportunity to unite the students, faculties, and our entire IILM family towards this noble cause.<\/p>\n

\n

By the end of the day, it was overwhelming to see the red ribbon getting transformed into a white ribbon which signified that every individual is working towards eradicating AIDS by spreading awareness and information.\u00a0World AIDS Day has already given us an initiative to change which we all need to accept.<\/p>\n

\n

Stay aware, stay blessed!<\/p>\n
