Advocacy
|
Promoting a friendly society with a focus on HIV infection control, patient rights protection, and empowerment, while considering the rights of female individuals living with HIV/AIDS and long-term care needs, and excluding legal constraints such as the HIV Infection Control and Patient Rights Protection Act.
|
In 2019, we initiated the 'Building Nests for Love' movement.
We called for the abolition of Article 21 in the HIV Infection Control and Patient Rights Protection Act. ,aiming to eliminate institutional oppression against PLWHA.
We organized the first PLWHA Empowerment Camp for women.
Approximately half of our clients showed interest in elderly issues, with most expressing concerns about future care during their senior years. In response, we revised and published the 'Aging with Love – PLWHA Handbook for the Golden Years.
We also invited PLWHA to participate in three empowerment training sessions.
