✨ Did you know that thanks to a new drug called lenacapavir, ending AIDS in 5 years is a real possibility?✨

It’s time to bridge the digital divide, and it will take all of us to make a lasting impact on digital health and rights for everyone. Read this reflective blog article by young members of the @DigHealthRights community advisory team: https://t.co/eLztk6cVUc… #UNGA2024

"The Anti-Homosexuality Act violates the health and human rights of Ugandans and is an affront to human dignity. It must be nullified in full."

- @Tabithaha on the Constitutional Court verdict to uphold all but 4 provisions of the AHA in Uganda.

The Ugandan Anti-Homosexuality Act has increased violence and discrimination against LGBT+ people. I’m deeply concerned Uganda continues to roll back human rights. The UK will continue to stand up for a world where people are free from persecution, regardless of their sexuality.

Today, March 6 (also Ghana Independence Day), people worldwide speak out online and march+protest in person to urge President @NAkufoAddo to reject Ghana’s draconian anti-LGBTQ+ bill that criminalizes an entire community just for existing. #QueerGhanaianLivesMatter #KillTheBill

That's £12bn of public money:
- 💊on just 10 drugs
-💷after a 10-50% profit margin
- 🏦on medicines funded largely by public money

We’re paying twice for crucial medicines, yet industry wants more money for their CEOs by re-writing the rules on #VPAS.

A barrier for feminist campaigning: 'Meta rejected multiple adverts by @RestlessDev to publicize the project mentioning feminism... because women’s rights is categorized as a “social issue” by Meta, requiring special restrictions'

@positive_trans @SaroImran @Tabithaha Thanks to all who attended this roundtable on Trans Rights, HIV and Access to Health Care & to @LizBarkerLords for chairing.

Discussion of solutions ranging from visibility, ending stigma & discrimination, trans-led health programmes, Intl pressure to uphold human rights & more!

[STOPAIDS @STOPAIDS]

@positive_trans @SaroImran Digital spaces can offer sanctuary but are also often targeted by anti-LGBT+ groups. #Privacy laws are not universally strong, nor is enforcement of these laws.

It’s not just governments who must act, but social media companies who hold much of this data, adds @Tabithaha.

[STOPAIDS @STOPAIDS]

Now, Eli @positive_trans says that visibility is essential to improving trans rights: “many people still don’t believe we even exist”.

Shares his story facing difficulty trying to access PrEP as a result of being trans.

[STOPAIDS @STOPAIDS]

@positive_trans @SaroImran The criminalisation of trans identities is a barrier to the HIV response.

In Uganda where the abhorrent Anti-Homosexuality Act is in place, the impact is already clear.

UK must further condemn the AHA. And address urgent need for asylum for LGBT+ people who’s lives are at risk.

[STOPAIDS @STOPAIDS]

@positive_trans Speaking from Pakistan, @SaroImran, says that more resources are needed to create safe spaces for communities and support legal cases to uphold then human rights of trans people, who face high levels violence & discrimination.
