World Duchenne Awareness Day is observed on September 7th each year, as designated by the United Nations General Assembly. This day is dedicated to raising awareness about Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), a rare genetic disorder that causes progressive muscle degeneration and weakness. The observance aims to highlight the challenges faced by those with DMD and to support ongoing research and advocacy efforts. The choice of this date helps focus global attention on improving understanding and treatment for this debilitating condition.
