International AIDS Candlelight Memorial 2012: Promoting Health and Dignity Together

“Promoting Health and Dignity Together” is the theme of the International AIDS Candlelight Memorial 2012. The theme aims to raise awareness around HIV and to promote respect for the human rights of people living with HIV. The memorial will take place on Sunday 20 May 2012.

The theme “Promoting Health and Dignity Together” is inspired by the Positive Health, Dignity and Prevention framework which is a people-centered and human rights based approach to the HIV response.
