GET TESTED

GET TESTED

Aids-Hilfe Schweiz - GET TESTED is a campaign run by Aids Help Switzerland. Its aim is to encourage men and women to know their own HIV status, while also breaking down prejudice and fear of discrimination.

GET TESTED is specifically designed for members of African communities in Switzerland.

Why a campaign for African communities in Switzerland?

HIV concerns all of us in some way. Sub-Saharan Africa is one of the regions of the world in which HIV is common. Many people are affected by HIV.

HIV-positive persons are still being stigmatised and isolated from society. In the African communities too, people are frightened of talking about HIV or going to be tested. (Photo: Aids-Hilfe Schweiz)
