Here’s a statistic from a recent UN AIDS study.
In countries where community-led partners of the Stephen Lewis Foundation (SLF) work, women and girls account for 63% of new HIV infections.
The SLF partners with community organizations in sub-Saharan Africa to respond to the HIV epidemic in six key areas.
- Children and Young People
- Grandmothers
- Home-based Care
- Positive Living
- Ending Violence Among Women and Girls
- Health and Human Rights for LGBTIQ Communities
Gender inequality, health care barriers and issues around the full rights of women and girls continue to be challenges. We can all be a part of finding solutions to this epidemic and this recent statistic. The SLF continues to work where it matters.
