What is 'LIGHT IT UP BLUE' INTERNATIONAL CAMPAIGN ?

 The 'Light it up blue' for Autism annual campaign 

was launched in 2010 by 'Autism Speaks', 

the largest Autism Organization in the World, 

along with the international autism community 

in recognition of World Autism Awareness Day, 

sanctioned by the United Nations  on Dec 2007.


April, is also known as World Autism Month 

in order to commemorate persons with autism and their families.


Thousands of iconic landmarks and buildings 

join the hundreds of thousands of homes and communities 

around the world to “light in blue” 

in support of people living with autism.


AAA has launched in 2016 the largest Autism Awareness campaign in Lebanon, by lighting up blue several ancient monuments across the country.

Autism-friendly events and educational activities take place during April to increase understanding and acceptance and further support people with autism.
