APHA is here to advocate that all we have to prevent anyone who doesn’t have HIV from contracting it, should know and have access to the tools they need.
A massive congratulations to our fabulous ED, Yvette Raphael @AuntyPoz, and our APHA team on receiving the prestigious Wakefield Outstanding Dedication Award from HVTN @HelpEndHIV! This honor recognises her exceptional work in HIV vaccine research and advocacy.
#IAS2025 Siviwe joined a panel hosted by the @awpcab_org ; co-hosted by Yvette Raphael & Sine Gogela, to speak on recommitting to HIV prevention amidst shrinking funding & rising anti-rights attacks. From lived realities to bold solutions, this session centered the urgency of now
