A report on a project which aimed to increase the capacity of HIV services and organisations to work with culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities, and to increase the inclusion of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) from CALD backgrounds in the strategic planning of HIV/AIDS services. This paper was presented by Nandini Ray from the Multicultural HIV/AIDS and
Hepatitis C Service at the AFAO HIV Educators Conference 2008.
The general population HIV prevalence stands at 5.1%(THMIS 2011/12) down from 18% in 1990.
HIV and STIs prevalence are also high among KP's, HIV is 31.4% while other STI has an average of 26% prevalence.
The number of KP's is not known, although there are fledgling groups of KP's which have started advocating for the Right to Health of KP's including protection against HIV infection, care and treatment to PLHIV KP's.
