"In order to prevent death from #AIDS, we need to ensure that all PLHIV have access to treatment. The benefit of science assures us that if you get tested on time, start and remain on treatment, you can live a healthy and quality life. Science has also shown us there is zero chance of passing HIV to sexual partners if PLHIV is on treatment and virally suppressed and has undetectable viral loads."@floriako Watch @floriako's invitation to a one-day workshop on Advanced HIV Disease (AHD) that @rrpplus, @gnpplus and @afrocab_hiv are hosting during the #IAS2025 pre-conference in Kigali on for on 12th July 2025.

HIV stigma continues to negatively affect PLHIV, hence the need to work together with communities to end stigma and #EndAids to keep people #AliveandThrive. #GR2023 of the PLHIV Stigma Index, a standardized tool to gather evidence on how stigma and discrimination impact the lives of people living with HIV. stigmaindex.org/country-repoâ€Ķ
For some people living with HIV, stigma can negatively impact: ðŸĨ💊seeking treatment & attending health appointments 💕relationships 🧠mental health & seeking support for it This doesn't need to happen. Learn more about what we do to tackle this: nat.org.uk/what-we-do/endingâ€Ķ

Beyond 2030 with PLHIV in the lead: Today, ​The Global Network of People Living with HIV (GNP )​ convened with PLHIV leaders from national & regional networks! What a powerful, inspirational, and energizing moment! We heard and learned from one another and resolved to come together now more than ever and SPEAK our LOUD for the community of people living with HIV we are all privileged to serve! Lots of lessons from how leaders are adapting to mitigate the obvious challenges experienced in global health currently. We are excited to strengthen our collaboration for a strong PLHIV-led advocacy towards shaping the next Global AIDS strategy (2025) and the High-Level Meeting on HIV/AIDS (2026). Thank you to all leaders who joined the call today and shared powerful contributions. #CommunitiesFirst #EndAids #Aliveandthrive

🎗ïļDecades of tackling the #HIV epidemic have taught us that #HumanRights must remain central to our HIV response. As we celebrate #HumanRightsDay2024, the community of the Global Partnership warmly thanks UNAIDS Red Ribbon Leader of the 10-10-10 targets @MarcAngel_lu, for championing the fight against stigma and discrimination. By dismantling the inequalities that perpetuate the epidemic, we'll ensure that no one is left behind in the EU, Europe and everywhere 🌍
