For all that is love, Aidsfonds’ new strategy launched
Last updated on: 28 February 2024
We strive for a world where people no longer die from AIDS and where everyone enjoys good sexual health. A world in which everyone can love freely and without fear. We do this by working together with the people who are hit hardest by HIV, STIs, discrimination and exclusion. We strengthen their voice and support them with information, knowledge and funding. For all that is love.
This mission is the core of our organisational strategy 2022 – 2025: For all that is love. Standing up for human rights is our greatest motivation and working with communities as equals is at the heart of all our work.
Turning dreams into reality
In this strategy we strive to achieve three dream goals:
No one dies of AIDS and no new HIV infections
Sexual health and rights for all
Cure available for all people living with HIV
Data plays an increasingly important role in everything we do. It’s crucial to continuously measure, adjust and substantiate our approach. Together with people living with HIV, communities most at risk of HIV and STIs, healthcare providers, funders, scientists and other collaborating partners, we developed a Theory of Change. This model reflects how we aim to achieve our three dream goals as an organisation and as such amplify our impact.
Whether it is pioneering research on a cure for HIV, tracing children living with HIV or supporting communities that are excluded. What’s more appealing than solving a global issue together? It’s feasible, but we cannot do it alone. I cordially invite everyone who shares our dream and want to join an inspiring movement. Join us, for the love of all!

Aidsfonds is proud to announce the Acthivate Fund, a new pooled funding mechanism that strengthens community-led HIV responses for and by men who have sex with men (MSM) and trans communities in contexts where access to healthcare remains severely restricted.

New Research: 73% of Organisations Forced to Scale Back HIV Services
New figures published today by amfAR (The Foundation for AIDS Research) reveal the devastating impact of US funding cuts to HIV programmes. Since funding for PEPFAR was reduced, at least 1,700 healthcare facilities have closed. In addition, 73% of healthcare organisations have been forced to discontinue at least one component of their HIV services prematurely. Men who have sex with men, sex workers and transgender people are among the groups most severely affected.
