Concept Note - World Blood Donor Day 2016: Blood Connects Us All

World Blood Donor Day - 14 June 2016 

The theme of this year's World Blood Donor Day is "Blood connects us all". It focuses on thanking blood donors and highlights the dimension of "sharing" and "connection" between blood donors and patients. In addition, we have adopted the slogan "Share life, give blood", to draw attention to the roles that voluntary donation systems play in encouraging people to care for one another and promote community cohesion. 

The campaign aims to highlight the key role that voluntary blood donation play for strengthening social cohesion and to encourage community participation towards a healthier society.
