💛 Pachyonychia Congenita Awareness Month - June 2026 💛

This is why awareness matters! It helps people find answers faster, feel supported, improves understanding of , and drives research toward better treatments and a cure.

🌍 International Albinism Awareness Day 2026
Theme: “Proudly in My Skin: Celebrating All Skin Tones”

On June 13, we celebrate the dignity, rights, and lived experiences of people with albinism.

This year's campaign promotes dignity, pride, and belonging while challenging colour-based discrimination, harmful myths, bullying, exclusion, and dehumanising language.

Let's challenge prejudice, amplify voices, and create communities where everyone can live with safety, equality, and dignity.

🤍 Celebrate all skin tones. Champion human rights. Promote inclusion.
