The forum brings together participants from law enforcement agencies and religious bodies. Other stakeholders will include health care workers, legislators, public prosecutors and members of the judiciary. The forum is premised on the crucial role that these stakeholders play in supporting the prevention of violence and enabling access to healthcare services for the key and affected populations.
The forum therefore aims at enhancing the stakeholder’s understanding of the linkages between violence prevention, HIV and human rights, increasing support for key populations’ access to justice and fostering collaboration between stakeholders and key populations in promoting violence prevention and access to health.
At the end of the meeting, participants will develop a comprehensive county action plan and implementation strategy on violence prevention in the context of HIV and key and affected populations.
