Insights from leaders in HIV prevention among African, Caribbean and Black communities
This is the second webinar in a series delivered in partnership with the African and Caribbean Council on HIV/AIDS in Ontario (ACCHO), Black Coalition for AIDS Prevention (Black CAP) and Africans in Partnership Against AIDS (APAA).
Learn about the HIV prevention landscape within African, Caribbean and Black (ACB) communities through this panel discussion with leading experts. This webinar explores unique systemic challenges these communities face, including barriers rooted in anti-Black racism, stigma and inequitable access to culturally relevant services.
Participants gain valuable insights into effective HIV prevention tools, as well as strategies to increase awareness and engagement when working with ACB people at increased systemic risk of HIV. Come away with a deeper understanding of ACB-led approaches to HIV prevention, along with considerations for the development of culturally competent programs that support the health and well-being of ACB communities.
