We must shift societal attitudes, urge communities and institutions to confront stigma & harmful beliefs affecting persons with albinism.
Regulations must ensure protection, access to services, and full participation in society. #AlbinismAwarenessDay #ProudlyInMySkin

President @CyrilRamaphosa makes it clear that unlawful actions, violence, intimidation, xenophobia and the spread of misinformation have no place in South Africa.
Only authorised law enforcement agencies may act against violations of the law, and all people must be treated with dignity and respect.

Its rollout marks a significant milestone in South Africa's ongoing efforts to combat HIV/AIDS and underscores the strong collaboration between government, civil society, the private sector, and development partners committed to ending HIV as a public health threat in the country.

A Gift of Peace
Ten years on, Muhammad Ali still speaks—through a painting of the United Nations headquarters he once created.
Everyday, as I pass by it, I am reminded that peace is forged by those who refuse to accept violence as the final word.
