This day is an opportunity for everyone who cares to express their stance on the issue, show attention to individuals with Down syndrome, and organize meaningful events.

As information about what Down syndrome entails becomes more widespread in our society, this date is increasingly accompanied by significant events prepared by those who genuinely want to help.

Since 2011, when March 21 was first declared as a day to combat Down syndrome, numerous educational and charitable events have been held in support. These events attract public attention and provide an opportunity to get to know extraordinary individuals who deserve our attention and compassion.

Supportive actions take place worldwide, and everyone has the opportunity to participate. Sometimes, it takes very little; for example, wearing colorful socks on March 21 has become a tradition in many countries. Socks were chosen as a symbol of the genetic characteristic, resembling chromosomes. This positive, colorful event gathers a large number of participants.

On this website, we have compiled the most notable events organized in support of people with Down syndrome.
