Here are three other campaigns that are working on issues linked to the Stop AIDS Campaign. Have a read and follow the links to take action:

ActionAid’s put your foot down campaign is calling on the UK government to take action on violence against women – a major driver of HIV and AIDS in developing countries.

By International Women’s Day on March 8, we want a total of 2,876 people to have signed our petition – that’s the number of women who contract HIV around the world each day.  With just two weeks to go, we’re still a few hundred signatures short and we urgently need your help to meet our target.

How you can help:

Sign our online petition here.
• Help to spread the word by letting five of your friends know about the campaign.  Send them an email or use our online sharing tools here.

Please take five minutes to support this really important campaign.  If you’d like more info, you can find out more here.

 

There are over 1,500 young people living with HIV in the UK. Over the past year the National AIDS Trust has uncovered worrying cases of children and staff being discriminated against just because they are HIV positive. NAT has set up a petition, asking the government to ensure that this becomes a thing of the past. Sign it here.

 

Right now people aged 50 and over aren’t included in monitoring and reporting of the AIDS epidemic.  Help the Aged have created a petition to call for this to be put right. They want to deliver the petition to DFID in March. Sign up here.
