An introduction and update to the global movement to end HIV criminalisation

This year, the online version of Beyond Blame is a unique opportunity for both new and long-established activists to learn about and join the growing, global movement that advocates against HIV criminalisation – unjust criminal laws, policies and practices that regulate or punish people living with HIV.

The first part of this interactive web show will be hosted by HJN’s Executive Director, Edwin J Bernard, and features interviews with various members of the HIV JUSTICE WORLDWIDE Steering Committee and HJN’s Global Advisory Panel (GAP). This will provide attendees with an overview of, and update to, the many issues relating to HIV criminalisation through a variety of lenses.

The second part of the session is an interactive Q&A, hosted by PWN-USA’s Naina Khanna. Throughout the session attendees will be further engaged with polls, video clips, and a surprise guest.

By the end of the session, attendees will be equipped with a greater understanding of the importance of HIV criminalisation, knowledge of strategies used for advocacy, and a set of follow-up actions.

Moderators:
Edwin J Bernard (HJN) and Naina Khanna (PWN-USA)

Session Co-host:
Nicholas Feustel (HJN)
