World AIDS Day is being observed today to raise public awareness about Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). The day also provides an opportunity for people to unite in the fight against HIV and to show support for those living with HIV. This year’s World AIDS Day will focus on raising awareness, promoting rights-based approaches to treatment, and eliminating discrimination against those affected by HIV/AIDS. The theme for 2024 is ‘Take the Rights Path.’ The National AIDS Control Organization (NACO) has been observing World AIDS Day on 1st  December every year since 1992. These observances have been fostering collaboration to address the challenges and advancements aiming at the global goal of ending HIV/AIDS by 2030.
