It’s that time again—HIV Vaccine Awareness Day. AVAC has worked with partners to develop a range of tools and resources for this day and for year-round advocacy. We hope you’ll find them useful whether you unfurl banners, strike up a band, hold a fishing boat race, host a town hall forum, or just turn to your closest neighbor and say, on May 18, “I’m committed to ending the AIDS epidemic, and that means finding an HIV vaccine.”
This year’s HVAD tools and resources include:
- A quick, colorful and comprehensive HIV Vaccine Research Overview. Four pages, five top-line updates. A speedy read designed to give a sense of the moving parts, momentum and major issues coming up in the year to come.
- HIV Vaccines by the Numbers: What, where, how many… key facts about the state of the science.
- Updated versions of AVAC’s core tools for HIV vaccine research literacy, including key messages, an introductory fact sheet, HIV vaccine basics PowerPoint presentation and Busy Advocates Guides to key issues.
At AVAC, we thank you for your work and partnership today and every day. We’re committed to ending the AIDS epidemic, and that means finding an HIV vaccine. We couldn’t do it without you.
Happy HVAD 2016!
