On November 18, 2014, the United Nations’ General Assembly adopted a resolution establishing June 13th as International Albinism Awareness Day. This historic resolution firmly fixes albinism advocacy at a global level. Adoption of the resolution was the latest result of the vigorous efforts of the organization, Under the Same Sun (UTSS). UTSS founder and president, Peter Ash, spearheaded political efforts in the U.N. to address discrimination against people with albinism, particularly in Africa.
Message From HWN Team:
Its our utmost wish and desire that the discrimination, segregation and brutal killings of Albinos across the globe with strong reference in African continent be stopped.
This is heinous crime against humanity.
Life is precious, any life destroyed cannot be rebuilt.
