Zero Discrimination Day
History of Zero Discrimination Day
In the year 2013, The Zero Discrimination Day was organized by the director of UNAIDS or the United Nations Program on HIV and AIDS, Michel Sidibé on the occasion of World’s AIDS Day. The first Zero Discrimination Day was celebrated in the year 2014 on the 1st of March. The main motive to established this day by United Nations Program on HIV and AIDS or UNAIDS was to work with the discrimination against the people who were affected by AIDS or HIV and also to bring equality in every person all over the world in every prospect because we all have equal rights and somehow we were distracted by having the proper knowledge and humanity to prevent this discrimination from political-economic educational even social rights and policies at the same time.
1 March this year is the tenth anniversary of Zero Discrimination Day. Upholding everyone’s rights is the responsibility of us all. Everyone can play a part in ending discrimination. On 1 March, and across the whole month of March, events, activities and messages will remind the world of this vital lesson and call to action: to protect everyone’s health, protect everyone’s rights.
