GATE is hosting this AIDS 2024 Satellite session on Wednesday, 24 July to increase awareness and knowledge of trans men in the HIV response and advance their inclusion for a healthier future.
With the Global AIDS Targets 2025 fast approaching, HIV continues to disproportionately impact the trans and gender diverse community. The exclusion of trans men and gender diverse assigned-female-at-birth (AFAB) persons from the global HIV response remains a significant barrier to achieving equity in healthcare.
Purpose & Outcome
This Satellite session aims to challenge the exclusion of trans men from the HIV response and highlight innovative approaches for inclusion by bringing together diverse experts, including researchers, policymakers, health professionals and activists.
Participants will engage in dynamic discussions and explore emerging evidence that demonstrates that the inclusion of marginalized groups can significantly enhance health responses. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding and practical strategies to prioritize inclusivity and ensure access to care for all, regardless of gender identity.
