Vital Positive Voices is a network of Africans in the UK living with and affected by HIV for sharing experiences and giving ourselves a voice.

Vital Positive Voices help the African HIV Policy Network’s (AHPN) work and strengthens the involvement of Africans in the policy, research and practice work. Involving and learning from Africans affected by HIV gives AHPN a much better understanding of the issues and concerns, so AHPN can be even more effective.

  • influence policy, research and practice

  • have a voice in the decisions that affect people's lives
