The world is talking about ending AIDS. AVAC’s advocacy is dedicated to realizing that vision. To get there we must:
On Tuesday, December 8 at 11am ET, the International AIDS Society’s Towards an HIV Cure initiative is hosting a webinar, Paving the way for an HIV cure: Introducing Target Product Profiles (TPP) and the HIV Cure Africa Acceleration Partnership (HCAAP), to unpack two new articles just published in The Lancet HIV.
This December 1st is a busy one for AVAC—in addition to being World AIDS Day, it also marks our 25th anniversary advocating for the ethical development and accelerated delivery of HIV prevention options that work for the people who need them most. And this year it’s also #GivingTuesday.
World AIDS Day demands a lot of many of us. We must balance grief, worry and mourning with clarion calls to action and demands for accountability. On this day of private meaning and public mobilization, AVAC brings you a letter—to you, whoever and wherever you are, to all the leaders on the frontlines, in the halls of power and in the homes where caretaking and community mobilization happen. You can read our Letter to the World here.
In this new edition of Protecting Global Gains, learn how an innovative approach to HIV care and treatment has helped Malawi better weather the impact of COVID-19. This latest story comes in the lead up to World AIDS Day—with this year the world commemorating the fight against one pandemic in the midst of another. World AIDS Day also provides an opportunity to reflect on work to protect hard-won gains against HIV during a global public health crisis.
