On this International AIDS Candlelight Memorial Day, Pride Bhutan joins the global community to honor the millions of lives lost and the resilient heroes who paved our way. This year’s theme, “Light the Legacy,” reminds us that our history is the foundation of our future.

As we light our candles today, we commit to a Bhutan where every individual lives with dignity and health. We remember the past to fuel our resolve for:

Social Mobilization: Uniting our voices to ensure no one is left behind in the journey toward wellness.

Stigma-Free Care: Shifting from risk-based messaging to benefit-based health choices that empower our community.

Health Equity: Advancing access to life-saving prevention and treatment for all.

Together, we carry the flame of those who came before us, turning remembrance into a powerful force for change.
