LGBT Community
The Elton John AIDS Foundation funded ANOVA Health Institute in South Africa to create We The Brave, a sexual health campaign for men who have sex with men to protect and learn about HIV/AIDS. It is the first large-scale campaign ever in South Africa specifically for gay men which addresses both prevention and treatment issues in an affirming, non-judgmental and sex positive way that is entertaining and educational.
We The Brave runs across South Africa linking men at risk or living with HIV to the care and psychological support they may need to live a healthy life, including Call 4 Care helplines that are available via WhatsApp or online 24 hours a day for those who want to receive support in a private and anonymous way.
