Why March 21st ?Down syndrome, also called Trisomy 21, is characterized by the presence of an extra chromosome-three instead of two- in chromosomal pair n.21 inside the cells 2+1=3. So this date represents the chromosomal defection found in the Down Syndrome and the twenty-first day of the third month, celebrate World Down Syndrome Day. An event created to raise public awareness, promote inclusivity, encourage advocacy and support the wellbeing of those living with Down Syndrome.
