WA International Albinism Awareness Day - Saturday 11 June 2016
On November 18, 2014, the United Nations' General Assembly adopted a resolution
establishing June 13th each year 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.
