FRIENDLY REMINDER: AIDSFOCUS.CH CONFERENCE 2014 ON ADDRESSING SEXUAL VIOLENCE AND HIV, 10 APRIL 2014, BERN

Sexual violence is a fundamental violation of human rights and has a direct impact on the health and wellbeing of people, especially women. Research shows that violence is a major cause of HIV transmission, but also a consequence of HIV infection. The aidfocus.ch conference explores how sexual and gender based violence increases vulnerability to HIV, AIDS and other STIs. It highlights current interventions to address the consequences of sexual violence on the health of women, children and men. Based on experiences and best practice, the conference will explore programming and key actions addressing the consequences of sexual violence. The focus is on sharing of experiences and information and learning from each other.

You are most welcome to participate in the conference. PLEASE REGISTER NOW: info@aidsfocus.ch, or http://www.aidsfocus.ch
