Dear colleagues and friends,



Please join us November 26, 2021 for the premiere of* HIV Made Me Fabulous*,
a World AIDS Day event to raise awareness and show support for women living
with HIV.

Start time: 10am Vancouver | 1pm Toronto | 6pm London | 7pm Madrid | 7pm
Paris | 8pm Johannesburg | 9pm Nairobi | 5am Sydney (Nov 27)

Research shows that people living with HIV who have an undetectable viral
load cannot transmit the virus to their sexual partners. Despite such
remarkable advances in medicine, people living with HIV continue to face
profound forms of stigma and violence. This affects women differently than
men and can have long-term negative consequences.

*HIV Made Me Fabulous* is a short film directed by Edmond Kilpatrick that
tells the personal story of Juno Roche, a writer, activist and trans woman
who has been living with HIV for more than 25 years. The film experience is
embodied, featuring candid storytelling accentuated by visual cues and
dance performed by three women.

In addition to screening the film, this online event will feature an
interactive discussion with women living with HIV and women working in the
global HIV response.
