The slogan of the World AIDS Campaign in 2001–2010 remains "Stop AIDS. Keep the Promise". As part of this, World AIDS Day 2006 will emphasize the theme of accountability.

People and organizations around the world are expected to campaign on 1 December 2006 to promote enhanced accountability from leaders on their commitments and generate greater public awareness and engagement on the problem of AIDS worldwide.

WHO and UN agencies will hold a public event at the WHO/UNAIDS Headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. On 1 December, WHO regional and country offices will join partner events throughout the world.
