Lagos Aids Walk

Lagos AIDS Walk is an annual event organized by BIIRE in conjunction with the Lagos State Agency for the Control of AIDS (LSACA). Its core aim is to increase the Lagos State populace awareness of existing laws such as the HIV / AIDS Anti-stigma Bill which was passed in 1997 to protect people living with HIV / AIDS (PLWHA) from discrimination and stigmatization.

This platform also seeks to advocate for increased political will and corporate support for HIV prevention, treatment, care and support; to raise funds for Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission of HIV (PMTCT) campaigns; and to progress towards international goals of universal access to HIV Counseling and testing (HCT) services.
