Better access to prevention and health care
Everybody who lives in Germany must have equal access to information, prevention, advice, counselling and health care. Regardless of the person’s cultural background and immigration status.
This is set out in the ‘Action-plan for the Implementation of a Strategy to Combat HIV/Aids’ of the German government (‘Aktionsplan zur Umsetzung der HIV/Aids-Bekämpfungsstrategie’). But in reality, people with a migrant origin are often not reached by the messages and services of HIV-prevention. Something needs to be done. And we want to help.
Health
In Germany, health is a human right. This is true for every person who lives in Germany, no matter where this person is born.
Prevention
Every person in German must have equal access to information about HIV/Aids. Every person also must have equal access to HIV-prevention. And everybody must have equal access to advice, counselling and health care.
MiSSA-Study
For the so-called MiSSA-Study people from Sub-Saharan Africa have answered questions about HIV/Aids and about other sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
