What inspires you to work in the HIV field?

I am inspired by the complexity of the HIV pandemic and how this virus fuses health with science, sexuality, society, history, economics, politics and culture.

What are your goals as an IAS change maker?

My goal is to inspire other people living with HIV to get involved in the historic HIV response led by the community, recognizing themselves as not just beneficiaries, but also the steering agents of political, social and legal change.
