We start “Positive Face to Face” program in 2019. Because there are still much discrimination and stereotype about HIV and PLWHA in Taiwan society. We hope to change this situation, and we think, if public have chance to talk to PLWHA, maybe they may have much empathy to understand PLWHA’s stories and situations. We think communication and understanding each other could help to eliminate cognition gap. And we want to empower our friends, to make them know they are not powerless, they can do something for themselves, so we invite PLWHA to participate this program.

Positive face to face is a website-based platform, there are almost twenty PLWHA participate this program, and you can see their stories/articles/introductions on the website. This stories or introductions help public to understand PLWHA in first step, then they can choose one PLWHA they interest in to ask any questions, participants will give feedback via voice recording.
