Welcome to Sophia Forum
Our core objectives are the protection and promotion of the good health of women, in particular women who are HIV-positive or who are at risk of sexually transmitted diseases including HIV by:
- promoting prevention and treatment for women living with HIV, both in the UK and internationally
- increasing awareness and understanding of women's sexual health, HIV and Aids amongst health care and other professionals, service providers and the public
Sophia organises awareness-raising events, shares experiences and best practice, informs decision-makers and opinion-formers, and provides an open forum for anyone concerned about HIV and how it affects women and girls. Many of our current supporters are individuals active in development, health and HIV work, and many others contribute experience from business, law and education.
Take action for positive change: find out more, use your influence and talk to your colleagues, friends and family members.
Use these web pages to find links to organisations taking a stand on HIV, to get the latest news about HIV and women, and to find out what action you can take.
