Access to Healthcare One of our values as AHF is fighting for what is right, At AHF, we believe healthcare is a human right and not a privilege, no matter who you are or where you live.

Did you know?

Millions of people worldwide are still locked out of basic healthcare. Stigma, discrimination and financial barriers continue to stop people from getting the care they deserve.

How we’re making a difference:
• Offering free HIV testing, counselling and treatment in communities that need it most
• Advocating for fair access to medicines, vaccines and essential healthcare services • Working hand-in-hand with local partners & Department of health to reach those often left behind.

Together, we can challenge inequality and build a future where healthcare truly means access for all.

SAFE LOVE, SMART CHOICES

Condoms are still cool, make sure you wear one - every time! But condoms aren’t the only prevent method, below are other options:

• PrEP — a daily pill that helps prevent HIV before exposure.
• Regular HIV testing — knowing your status keeps you in control,
• Treatment is Prevention (U=U) — when viral load is undetectable, HIV can’t be passed on.
• PEP — emergency HIV prevention after possible exposure (within 72 hours).
• Open conversations — honest talks about health build trust and safety.

Prevention is not one-size-fits-all. Choose what works for you, and protect yourself.

HIV Prevention Through Education

HIV prevention starts with knowledge. When young people are informed, they are empowered to make safer choices for their health and their future. When young people are given the space to learn, speak and lead, real change happens.

Education helps break myths, reduce stigma and open honest conversations about HIV prevention, from testing and treatment to condoms and PrEP. Informed youth make healthier decisions, and help build healthier communities.

As a young person, what are some of the myths that were corrected through education? Answer in the comments section and one lucky commenter will receive branded goodies from us.
