Regional Activities

The Global Campaign for Microbicides is a broad-based, international coalition working to accelerate access to HIV prevention options like microbicides. In cooperation with our partners and endorsers, we develop and implement activities that build on the strengths and expertise of our numerous partners, and that move towards our collective goals.

  • Generate political will and increased funding for microbicide research, female condom, and cervical barrier methods;
  • Create a supportive policy environment for the timely development, introduction and use of new prevention technologies;
  • Ensure that as the science proceeds, the public interest is protected and the rights and interested of trial participants, users, and communities are fully represented and respected.

The Global Campaign works in the Global North and the Global South. Our activities include:

  • Awareness-raising among policy-makers, opinion leaders, the scientific community and general public about microbicides and prevention options for women
  • Legislative advocacy and resource mobilisation in donor countries
  • Policy advocacy in government and international organisations
  • Strengthening capacity and building consensus within the advocates community
  • Representing user needs and interests
  • Media and electronic outreach

More than half of the Global Campaign's partner organisations are located in the "Global South." The majority of these are in countries most affected by the HIV and AIDS epidemic, or where clinical trials of microbicides are taking place.

To learn more about specific activities, visit our regional sections: Africa, Europe, India, Latin America, South America & the Caribbean, the Middle East RegionNorth America, and Southeast Asia.
