2016 GNP+ Annual Report

In 2016, GNP+ worked diligently to reinvigorate our activist voice and expand our partnerships and programming, while continuing our core capacity building work with PLHIV and key population networks around the world. The highlight of the year, undoubtedly, was our successful 2016 Positive LIVING Leadership Summit which brought together over 270 people living with HIV from 78 countries to engage in two days of intensive discussion, sharing, learning, celebrating and strategizing prior to the 2016 International AIDS conference in Durban. The participants in the Summit forged new partnerships, strengthened old and existing relationships and are now embarking on ambitious advocacy initiatives to address stigma and discrimination and fight for universal access to treatment, care and prevention initiatives for and led by people living with HIV.

Although we remain a small organization, we endeavor to make a large impact in our collective fight to ensure the rights, health, safety and wellness of people living with HIV and empower members of our communities to strengthen their representation and voice in local, national and international policy and programmatic arenas.
