A Women’s Networking Zone at AIDS2010
Building on a decade of women’s organizing at and around the International AIDS Conferences, the Women’s Networking Zone (WNZ) AIDS2010 took place in the Global Village of the International AIDS Conference in Vienna from the 18th to the 23rd of July 2010. The WNZ2010 built on a consultative process from 2008 to 2010 to identify key issues affecting women and young women in relation to HIV and AIDS in the Europe and Central Asia region, including stigma and discrimination, motherhood, sex and sexuality, harm reduction, and sex workers’ rights. The process was led by and inclusive of women and young women living with HIV, whose leadership the WNZ sought to promote while encouraging linkages between women locally, regionally and globally. Our message for AIDS2010: “WOMEN’S RIGHTS HERE, RIGHT NOW!”
