During the program, 50 officers and youth union members of the Provincial Center for Disease Control marched along the main roads in Minh Xuan Ward. This is a meaningful communication activity in response to the National Action Month for HIV/AIDS Prevention and Control in 2025 and World AIDS Day on December 1.

Through this, we aim to raise awareness of the community, especially the youth, in preventing HIV/AIDS; reduce stigma and discrimination against people infected with HIV and people affected by HIV/AIDS, and strive towards the goal of ending AIDS by 2030.
