Even today, people with HIV are still marginalised in the scene

Did you know that people with HIV still say they can't get a date? That they are discriminated against by doctors? Or that they are ashamed to talk about their infection? If not, then our new video is for you!

The "positive voices 2.0" study was published in September 2021. It shows: As a rule, people with HIV can live very well with their infection. This was confirmed by almost 90% of respondents. However, the problem with living with HIV is discrimination and stigmatisation - even in the gay community.

This was reason enough for us to make the results of the study one of our main topics this year! People living with HIV were involved in this survey from the very beginning. People with HIV interviewed other people with HIV. This created an important situation of trust so that the interviewees could share their authentic experiences.

Some people with HIV also have their say in our new video! Watch it here:

At ICH WEISS WAS ICH TU (IWWIT), people with HIV have been an important part of our campaign from the very beginning. Just like authentic images of life with HIV. They prevent stigmatisation and discrimination.

If you would like to support us in our work, then share this video! And tell people about a very special piece of good news: HIV is not transmissible under therapy. Because that's what the study also showed: This news has greatly relieved those affected.

Show solidarity wherever people with HIV are marginalised or discriminated against! And find out more at iwwit.de! Here you will find lots more information about living with HIV. And you will find information on how you or others can defend yourself against discrimination and marginalisation.
