World AIDS Day 2008 – The Theme is "Leadership"

Tuesday November 25, 2008
In a year that sees the election of a new US President, the theme of World AIDS Day 2008 is "leadership". Continuing the theme from 2007, the leadership theme encourages leaders at all levels of government around the world to stop AIDS. The theme leadership highlights the discrepancy between the commitments that have been made in an effort to stop the spread of AIDS and the actions that have been actually taken. "Leadership" empowers; it empowers individuals, organizations, and governments. This year’s World AIDS Day puts leadership in the spotlight; allowing everyone to follow through with their promises to stop the epidemic.
