NACA Aims for HIV Free Nigeria with GENERATION NEGATIVE

Interventions to arrest new HIV infections are gaining momentum as the National Agency for the Control of AIDS – NACA, collaborating with Maximizing Options for Informed Choice for HIV Prevention – MOSAIC, a USAID funded project, anchors a campaign that is youth centered – GENERATION NEGATIVE.

The campaign is targeted at catering to the young population who are contributing to new infections and interestingly a more vulnerable group; Adolescent Girls and Young women who statistics show are more prone to HIV infection.

The initiative aims at creating a movement where every individual including key actors in the HIV space become a hero by consciously working at prevention; cutting back new infections, ahead of the 2030 target of ending the HIV epidemic.
