Global Survey: U=U PLHIV NETWORK SURVEY

Introduction

Dear Respondent,

GNP+ and Prevention Access Campaign (PAC) are collecting information from people living with HIV, PLHIV networks, and public and private health service provider to better understand current knowledge, confidence and activities related to Undetectable=Untransmittable.

The purpose of the survey is to better understand the current level of knowledge, confidence and engagement with U=U. By gathering information on how U=U is understood, communicated and implemented across different countries and sectors, we aim to identify strengths, gaps and opportunities for strengthening U=U education and advocacy.

All responses will be analyzed in aggregate to ensure confidentiality. The findings will be used to guide collaborative efforts with networks, health providers, and partners to improve U=U communication, reduce stigma, and support the health and rights of people living with HIV globally.

Thank you for contributing to this collaborative effort.

Regards,
GNP+ and PAC
