World AIDS Day
2024-12-01 08:00 - 17:00 (America/New_York) | NY
World AIDS Day is an opportunity for every community and each individual to honor the more than 32 million people who have died worldwide from AIDS-related illness. Observed on December 1, it is a day for voices to unite by sharing experiences, remembering those lost, and standing together in the fight against HIV.

Pansexual Pride Day
2024-12-08 08:00 - 17:00 | NY
Every year on December 8th we celebrate Pansexual Pride Day. This is one of two main days for the Pansexual community, the other being Pansexual and Panromantic Visibility Day on May 24.
Pansexual Pride Day is an annual event to celebrate Pansexuality and Panromanticism. It’s also a time to raise awareness of Pansexual and Panromantic people and highlight their life experiences. It’s a time when the community can share stories and experiences, and speak out around the issues faced.
What Is Pansexuality?
Pansexuality is one of the identities on the LGBTQ+ spectrum of sexual orientation, which are all natural and wonderful aspects of human diversity. It is, though, one of the less understood identities.
For Pansexual people gender plays no, or very little, part in whether they are sexually attracted to someone or not. So they could be attracted to anyone of any gender, binary or otherwise. Many Pansexual people may say they are just attracted to humans.
Attraction could be based on someone’s intellect, energy, physical appearance, shared interests or values. So in fact exactly the same things that allow anyone else to form connections.
Pansexual people can identify as queer, or as any gender, and are also much less likely to be concerned if the gender identity of their partner changes.

Human Rights Day
2024-12-10 08:00 - 17:00 | NY
Human Rights Day is observed by the international community every year on 10 December. It commemorates the day in 1948 the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
The formal inception of Human Rights Day dates from 1950, after the Assembly passed resolution 423 (V) inviting all States and interested organizations to adopt December 10 of each year as Human Rights Day.
When the General Assembly adopted the Declaration, it was proclaimed as a “common standard of achievement for all peoples and all nations”, towards which individuals and societies should “strive by progressive measures, national and international, to secure their universal and effective recognition and observance”.
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights sets out a broad range of fundamental rights and freedoms to which all of us are entitled. It guarantees the rights of every individual everywhere, without distinction based on nationality, place of residence, gender, national or ethnic origin, religion, language, or any other status.
Although the Declaration is not a binding document, it inspired more than 60 human rights instruments which together constitute an international standard of human rights. Today the general consent of all United Nations Member States on the basic Human Rights laid down in the Declaration makes it even stronger and emphasizes the relevance of Human Rights in our daily lives.
The High Commissioner for Human Rights, as the main United Nations rights official, and the Office of the High Commissioner play a major role in coordinating efforts for the yearly observation of Human Rights Day.
