Why this webinar?
Join this W4GF webinar to understand more about the Global Partnership to Eliminate all forms of HIV-related Stigma and Discrimination (The Global Partnership) and how it connects to the Global Fund?
This webinar, organised in partnership with the Global Network of People Living with HIV (GNP+) and UNAIDS, hopes to build on Global Partnership commitments and connections to influence national programmes and services funded by the Global Fund and others. More action is required to address stigma and discrimination as persistent barriers to accessing prevention, testing and treatment services for many women and girls especially those from key affected populations. Join this discussion to learn more about where the Global Partnership is being implemented; what the impact has been for women and girls and how you can connect to this work in your own country.
