GNP+ is excited to unveil our new Strategic Plan 2023-2026 “FOR OUR HEALTH AND RIGHTS”. Built upon a rich history and extensive experience, the strategy strengthens GNP+’s commitment and community leadership to adapt, innovate, and contribute to the global HIV response and beyond.
We launch our strategy on an important day for people living with HIV. Today marks 40 years since the Denver Principles were developed, which asserted the rights and self-determination of people living with HIV. The principles also called on people living with HIV “to choose their own agenda and to plan their own strategies”. This laid the foundation for networks such as GNP+ to form.
The leadership and meaningful involvement of people living with HIV remains as relevant today, not just for HIV but for wider health and social justice goals. Our governments have committed to ending AIDS by 2030. It is the communities of people living with HIV and key populations that have the experience, skill, and sheer determination to help drive country and global efforts to meet this ambitious goal.
Our strategic plan reflects the priorities and perspectives of the communities we serve and the current reality of the HIV response. We know there is much more work to be done to address the historic challenges of stigma and unequal treatment access, and we will continue to advocate for our rights.
With the launch of our new strategic plan, GNP+ reaffirms our commitment to advancing the health and rights of people living with HIV in all our diversity. Through collective action, inclusive partnerships, and community-led initiatives, we aim to create lasting change and improve the lives of people affected by HIV globally.
Listen here to our Co-Directors, Sbongile Nkosi and Florence Riako Anam talk further about the new strategy and how they plan to implement it within a co-leadership model.
