Stop SIDA
Stop was founded in 1986 as a grassroots community association (under the name Gais per la Salut), with the aim of responding to the devastating impact of HIV on the homosexual community, before the administrations themselves did so.
We work for sexual health from and for the lesbian, gay, transsexual and bisexual (LGBT+) community and trans men and women who engage in sex work.
We train lesbian, gay, bisexual, heterosexual and transgender volunteers and workers.
We are committed to improving sexual health care and creating conditions, on a universal scale, that enable the expression of one’s sexuality without discrimination. We work for the elimination of inequalities and for the recognition and protection of the right to experience sexual orientation and gender identity of people and their diversity, based on development cooperation (for example with information, training and empowerment projects of the LGTB+ community in Latin America), humanitarian action, education and social mobilization.
