Every year, the 1st of December we dedicate to raising awareness of the AIDS pandemic and HIV infection. For the first time the World AIDS Day was inaugurated in 1988 by World Health Organisation (WHO) as an answer to a growing number of both: victims of the virus and new infections. On that day in most of countries all over the world, conferences, educational actions and happening are organized in order to remind us about danger and raise our awareness. Media are active participants as well.

A Red Ribbon is a symbol of solidarity with those who are infected.
