SUMMARY:World AIDS Day
DESCRIPTION:Today is World Aids Day\, this annual event serves as an important reminder that we must remain steadfast in our commitment to prevent new HIV infections and provide essential services to all people living with HIV globally. In the UK\, more than 105\,000 people are living with HIV. Globally\, an estimated 38 million people live with the virus. More than 35 million people have died of HIV or AIDS related illnesses over the past 40 years\, making it one of the most destructive pandemics in history. \nIts also a good opportunity to clear up misconceptions about the disease\, which may lead to prejudice. \n\nHIV cannot be spread through touch\, tears\, sweat\, saliva\, or pee. It can only be spread through blood\, semen\, vaginal fluid or breast milk\nMosquitos cannot spread HIV among humans\nHIV can be spread among heterosexual couples\nTreatment for HIV doesn’t involve taking dozens of pills a day – most only take 1-4 a day\nPeople with HIV can still safely have children\nContracting HIV doesn’t mean your life is over – With treatment\, it’s possible to live a long and healthy life\, just like anyone else\n\n\n#RockTheRibbon #WorldAidsDay #LivingwithHIV \nSource: WebMD

SUMMARY:Human Rights Day
DESCRIPTION:Human Rights Day is observed by the international community every year on 10 December. It commemorates the day in 1948 the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. \nThe formal inception of Human Rights Day dates from 1950\, after the Assembly passed resolution 423 (V) inviting all States and interested organizations to adopt 10 December of each year as Human Rights Day. \nWhen the General Assembly adopted the Declaration\, it was proclaimed as a “common standard of achievement for all peoples and all nations”\, towards which individuals and societies should “strive by progressive measures\, national and international\, to secure their universal and effective recognition and observance”. \nThe Universal Declaration of Human Rights sets out a broad range of fundamental rights and freedoms to which all of us are entitled. It guarantees the rights of every individual everywhere\, without distinction based on nationality\, place of residence\, gender\, national or ethnic origin\, religion\, language\, or any other status. \nAlthough the Declaration is not a binding document\, it inspired more than 60 human rights instruments which together constitute an international standard of human rights. Today the general consent of all United Nations Member States on the basic Human Rights laid down in the Declaration makes it even stronger and emphasizes the relevance of Human Rights in our daily lives. \nThe High Commissioner for Human Rights\, as the main United Nations rights official\, and the Office of the High Commissioner play a major role in coordinating efforts for the yearly observation of Human Rights Day. \n  \n#HujmanRightsDay #HumanRights \nSource: OHCHR

SUMMARY:International Animal Rights Day
DESCRIPTION:International Animal Rights Day is celebrated on December 10th every year globally\, for the rights and welfare of animals. \nThe day seeks people to address the rights of animals\, both domestic and wild. The day is celebrated to pay tribute to and advocate animal rights. \nOn this day\, animal lovers can encourage their friends\, family\, relatives\, or communities to provide a voice for animal rights. They deserve our respect\, love\, and fair treatment. Whether a parent\, teacher\, grandparent or friend\, those who have an influence on children can take this time to teach them how to value and respect the animals in the world. Perhaps use International Animal Rights Day as a motivator to talk about #Conservation\, learn about animals that are on endangered or at-risk species lists\, and practice ways to be more kind to the animals and the environment. \n#AnimalRights #InternationalAnimalRightsDay \n  \nSource:  http://internationalanimalrightsday.org/

SUMMARY:International Migrants Day
DESCRIPTION:As we observe International Migrants Day on December 18th\, we reflect upon the challenges and difficulties faced by over 272 million migrants courageously building new lives in every corner of the world. The reality of migration is more than just starting over. \nMigrants travel in search of security and opportunities that will allow them to reinvent themselves. Others are escaping from discrimination and prejudice. Host societies need to evolve and welcome these communities for a better tomorrow. \nThis past year\, we saw record levels of internal displacement\, rising humanitarian needs across ongoing and new crises\, and\, tragically\, the highest-ever death toll of migrants in transit. Yet\, alongside these challenges\, are stories of resilience\, progress and hope. Where safe and well-managed migration holds extraordinary potential. Migrants play critical roles in labour markets\, filling skills gaps\, driving innovation and entrepreneurship\, and addressing demographic challenges in aging societies. Migrants boost economic growth and provide a lifeline to families and communities back home\, driving development. \nThe evidence is overwhelming that when migration is managed safely and strategically\, it can be a powerful force for good. By supporting regular pathways for migration\, we can enable opportunities for migrants\, better protect their rights\, and contribute to greater prosperity in the countries migrants come from and those that host them. \nTogether\, one step at a time\, we can continue building a world where migration is safe\, orderly\, and beneficial – for everyone. \n#MigrantsDay #InternationalMigrantsDay #Refugees \nSource:  https://www.un.org/en/observances/migrants-day \n

SUMMARY:Christmas Day
DESCRIPTION:Christmas is a time of joy and celebration\, but also a time when many people feel lonely and isolated. Loneliness can affect anyone\, at any age\, and it can have a serious impact on our health and wellbeing. According to the Office for National Statistics\, almost one in 14 people aged 16 or over in Great Britain say they are lonely\, up 40% since last spring1. \nThat’s why we at aDoddle.org are working hard to connect people and communities across the UK. We believe that everyone deserves to have an easy and accessible way to find help\, give help and get connected locally. Our online platform allows you to search for local charities\, community groups\, events\, resources and opportunities to #Volunteer that match your needs and interests. Whether you are looking for support\, friendship\, or a way to make a difference\, you can find it on aDoddle.org. \nThis #Christmas\, we invite you to join us in our mission to #EndLoneliness and build stronger\, more resilient communities. You can start by visiting our website and exploring the amazing organisations and projects that are happening near you. You can also follow us on social media and share your stories of how you are connecting with others and making a positive impact. And you can help us spread the word by telling your friends and family about aDoddle.org and encouraging them to get involved. \nTogether\, we can make finding and connecting with local support and opportunities “a doddle” for everyone. Together\, we can make this Christmas a little less lonely and a lot more festive. Thank you for being part of our aDoddle community and we wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy new year! 🎄🎁🎉 \n  \n#ConnectingCommunities #PeopleHelpingPeople #AdoddleIt
