September 2025
A Day with HIV is a social media-driven campaign that portrays 24 hours in the lives of people all over the world affected by HIV—that’s all of us, regardless of status. On Monday, 22 September, photograph a moment of your day—it can be a selfie, an action photo or an artful image. Post the picture to your social media with the hashtag #adaywithhiv; add a caption that includes the TIME and LOCATION of your photo and what INSPIRED you to take it.
Every year, A Day with HIV coincides with the autumnal equinox—one of only two days of the year when day and night are the same length. It signifies balance; in some ancient cultures, the equinox also signaled a time for change. What better day to take your best shot against stigma?
