Today is #ZeroHIVStigmaDay
Stigma remains one of the biggest barriers to HIV prevention, testing, treatment, and care. While we have made remarkable progress in improving the quality of life for people living with HIV and reducing new transmissions, our work is not done.
We stand together to end the shame, silence, discrimination, and exclusion that too many people still face. Every voice, every story, and every act of solidarity brings us one step closer to a world free from HIV stigma.
Let's choose compassion over judgment, facts over fear, and inclusion over discrimination. Together, we can create a future where everyone can access care, live with dignity, and thrive, without stigma.

Football is more than a game, it's a global marketing platform. Promoting tourism while serving your national coffee is clever nation branding. @MagicalKenya, Kenya has everything needed to do the same.

Today is #SickleCell Awareness Day 🩸
40% more people are living with sickle cell disease today than in 2000. It is a growing health challenge, affecting around 7.7 million people in the world today.
This means more health workers – incl. maternity providers - need to know how to manage the disease.

Kenya is making real progress in reducing overall HIV infections since 2020, but a worrying trend is emerging: 𝟱𝟱% 𝗼𝗳 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 are now among young people, including adolescents and children.

During the 2026 Joint Annual Programme Review (JAPR2026) in Nairobi, the government launched the Kenya AIDS Integration Strategic Framework (KAISF) 2025–2030 and county syndemic operational plans, under the coordination of the National Syndemic Diseases Control Council (National Syndemic Diseases Control Council) and Cabinet Secretary for @MOH_Kenya Hon.

If we are serious about ending HIV, then youth-centered prevention, education, and stigma-free access to services must move from policy to priority.
