Wales' HIV Action Plan is now open for public consultation until September 14. Described as a "practical" document, it was launched at the Senedd with help from several volunteers, organisations and people living with HIV in Wales.
According to Fast Track Cardiff & Vale, an organisation dedicated to reaching the UNAIDS 90/90/90 targets for HIV in Wales, the Action Plan has been worked on with people living with the virus and volunteers.
The plan is led by three overarching principles, which are: There should be zero tolerance when it comes to HIV-related stigma; plans for implementation of new initiatives and services will be informed by, or developed with, people living with HIV, with particular recognition of contextual differences by sexuality, ethnicity, age, gender and location; and all new initiatives and services will be subject to ongoing monitoring and evaluation to make sure they meet the actions and principles laid out in the plan.
