Elton John Aids Foundation Grants
Elton John AIDS Foundation : WE NOW HAVE THE TOOLS TO CONTAIN AND REDUCE THE SPREAD OF HIV.
And yet, almost 1.2 million people died of AIDS and related causes last year worldwide. In certain groups – such as Men Who Have Sex With Men (MSM), Sex Workers and People Who Inject Drugs – the scale of the epidemic is actually growing, instead of decreasing.The reasons for this trend are not that we do not have the tools and services to address the problem, but due to a lack of access to such tools and services.
WE BELIEVE THIS LACK OF ACCESS IS DRIVEN BY STIGMA AND DISCRIMINATION.
Vulnerable groups are those with the greatest need for help and support, and yet are the same groups who are most marginalised and isolated by their own governments, communities and society as a whole.
WE BELIEVE THAT THE ONLY WAY TO CREATE AN AIDS FREE FUTURE IS TO ENSURE THAT NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND IN THE FIGHT AGAINST HIV.
We have therefore designed a new strategic response to fit the current epidemic, which will have a much greater focus on key populations at higher risk.
