The European AIDS Treatment Group (EATG) is a long-standing activist organisation that has focused on HIV treatment and related issues for over three decades.
For World AIDS Day this year the group released a new 38-minute video, recorded at EACS 2023, as part of a campaign to reduce HIV stigma.
The video stresses the importance of ending stigma and discrimination to reduce the impact on the mental health and wellness of communities affected by HIV.
The group aimed to represent the voices and concerns of people living with HIV and community, HIV and mental health community workers and HIV clinicians.
