LGBTIQ+ people

LGBTIQ

LGBTIQ+ people are 13 times more likely to acquire HIV than other adults. They often face high levels of stigma, discrimination and violence, which directly limits their access to (life-saving) health care.

To end the HIV epidemic, we need to enable communities most affected by and at risk of HIV –like the LGBTIQ+ community. They play a crucial role in the solution, because they know best what is needed and what works. The Love Alliance programme brings all those communities together to end AIDS. The programme builds on existing evidence on the effectiveness of rights-based responses and advocates for adequate levels of funding and for taking truly human rights-based programmes to scale.

Love Alliance

The Love Alliance is based on the premise that to end AIDS, the groups most affected by the epidemic need to be at the centre of the response. We build on existing evidence on the effectiveness of rights-based responses that focus on and meaningfully engage LGBTIQ+ people, sex workers, people who use drugs, with specific attention for people living with HIV, women, and young people within these communities.
