HIV Disclosure Project

HIV Disclosure Project Published here are articles,images, thoughts, humour, music and photographs which address the challenges of living with and disclosing HIV.

As a means of understanding obstacles which prevent people living with HIV from disclosing to potential sex partners this page is designed by and for the HIV community and allies, who contribute using humour, role play, stories, images, articles, photographs, videos and any other type of media to address stigma, fear, terminology which reinforces stigma on the dating scene and criminalization.

The focus remains on educating the public about people living with HIV as we strives to promote tolerance, acceptance and understanding, on changing public perceptions of the reality of people living with HIV and to challenge the criminal justice system which criminalizes people living with HIV . Using this approach the goal is to empower individuals who are at potential risk when disclosing their HIV status, externalize stigma, and emphasize the importance of taking individual responsibility for ones’ own sexual health.

The impact of availability of highly active antiretroviral therapy on the prevalence of syphilis

"If you had told him then that he’d be sitting in his home in Sandton, at 73, six years after stepping down from the Constitutional Court, where he served for 11 years, recounting those terrifying times on a bright summer’s day as a marquee was being set up in the garden to celebrate a friend’s birthday, there is no way he would have believed you."

At 33, retired Constitutional Court justice Edwin Cameron thought he had, maybe, seven years left. His story traces the arc from certain death from Aids to a chronic, manageable condition at 73 — and asks what happens when the generation who fought for life finally get to grow old.

"Psilocybin became the focal point of the psychedelic research revival at Johns Hopkins University. Consequently, psilocybin dominates modern psychedelic discourse, and high-profile clinical trials for depression and addiction are covered by major media outlets. Furthermore, the public perceives psilocybin mushrooms as a naturally occurring substance, which is received more favourably than synthetic laboratory drugs (such as L*D or M**A). This is known as the 'Naturalness Bias' in risk perception."

Psychedelic policy in the US is shifting fast, but is public opinion keeping pace? A landmark 2025 RAND survey of over 10,000 Americans explored which psychedelics the public supports legalising, why psilocybin leads the pack, and what the road to reform might actually look like.

April 12-16 is STI Awareness Week.

For many Women Partners clients, they are not thinking about the possible risk of Sexually Transmitted Infections as they believe they are in a monogamous relationship. However, our s*xual health is only as safe as that of our s*xual partners. We cannot control the actions of our partners, we can, however, be responsive and empowered in our own s*xual health needs, pleasure and safety.

Women Partners have compiled a Women led contraceptive and barrier protection resource list, to promote women s*xual pleasure and empowerment strategies.
