What inspires you to work in the HIV field?

A high number of young people are diagnosed with HIV. I am inspired to educate them on safe practices that will protect them from HIV.

What are your goals as an IAS change maker?

As a change maker, my goal is to educate more young people who use drug, especially young people who inject drugs, on safer practices that can protect them from HIV and other diseases.

The IAS promotes the use of non-stigmatizing, people-first language. The translations are all automated in the interest of making our content as widely accessible as possible. Regretfully, they may not always adhere to the people-first language of the original version.
