Empowering Voices: Women with Down Syndrome Speak on Health #WDSD2024

21st March 2024

World Down Syndrome Day 2024 is an international awareness day for people with Down syndrome. The theme for this year’s World Down Syndrome Day is to End The Stereotypes.

To mark this occasion, we decided to focus on women with Down syndrome to raise awareness of the poor health outcomes often faced by these women. We asked women with Down syndrome from all over the world to tell us what health means to them. We wanted to hear from the women themselves how they take care of their own health and what is important to them and how they choose to End the Stereotypes each day.
