The HIV Prevention Choice Manifesto For Women and Girls In Africa

The HIV Prevention Choice Manifesto is a collection of voices of African women and girls in all their diversity, feminists and HIV prevention advocates across Southern and Eastern Africa who are united in calling for continued political and financial support for HIV prevention choice.

Mary Borgman

EQUITY is at the center of all the work that PEPFAR does globally. In that sense the Choice Manifesto aligns directly to the ethos of the work that PEPFAR is doing to deliver person centered HIV Prevention Program At country level and as PEPFAR Coordinator, she committed to work in a manner that allows for dialogue and conversation around choice to continue in the work that PEPFAR does.

Winnie Byanyima

Committed first at a personal level as an African Woman, a feminist to the cause and campaign of women’s choice agenda. “I remain committed to be one of you as an African woman”. Will support and amplify the voices of young women by providing platforms where dialogue around choice in HIV prevention can be tabled. UNAIDS will convene meetings by bringing an array of partners (governments, funders, manufacturers) to support the roll out and implementation of HIV prevention options. Even if it mean bringing the partners on the community table. UNAIDS will work with governments to address financing and sustainability of HIV programs. Governments should take ownership of providing HIV prevention options to populations who need them most

Ruth Akulu

Committed to ensure that the Choice Manifesto does not end with her; but it gets shared, communicated and understood by more young women in Uganda so that there is continuity.
