HIV prevention

In my home country Burundi there are 13.24 million people of which 2.9% are living with HIV. This means 383,000 people! Many of them still do not have reliable access to HIV treatment and HIV stigma and prejudices are still widespread throughout Burundi.

I come here when things are rough. When my head is so full I have to put it on paper. I can't say that I put it all here.

We all know that PrEP is an important way to prevent HIV, but did you know that ... PrEP is for people of all ages and in all phases of life experiences.

Now don't ask me how Lagos happened – it just happened... I had the most positive response from the biking community and that's where I struck gold.

The harsh reality is that there are way too few organisations in our HIV community that are actively promoting PrEP access.

Mi querida gente, prometí compartir con ustedes mi aprendizaje de SIDA 2024 en Múnich.

Not only do I want these things, I deserve them. So does everyone else living with HIV. Shift the paradigm. Let's talk about pleasure.

No solo quiero estas cosas, las merezco. Igual que todos los demás viviendo con VIH. Cambia el paradigma. Habla sobre el placer.

All my love for you Job Corps; I've been meaning to write this blog for years!

My lovely people, I promised to share my learning from AIDS 2024 in Munich with you. The two days I spent at the Global Village were quite fruitful as an activist.
