To provide a platform and tools for the greater
involvement of people living with HIV in the
personal and national response to HIV.
To equip people living with HIV with essential
information and skills for living emotionally- and
physically-healthy lives

with HIV across all areas and levels of
programming and policy.
Global framework includes
1.
Core values
2.
Guiding principles of involvement
3.
Programming and policy objectives
4.
Nine key areas to strengthen programming
. . . plus examples of promising practices
Positive Health, Dignity, and Prevention seeks to:
•
Improve and maintain the health and well-being
of people living with HIV.
•
Promote holistic health and wellness.
•
Address psychosocial, economic, educational,
and socio-cultural vulnerabilities, as well as
gender and sexuality.
•
Respect and be tailored to specific contexts and
the diversity of
people living with
HIV.
•
Help to ensure a supportive and protective legal
and policy environment.
Positive Health, Dignity, and Prevention affirms that we
need a collective response, with the full engagement of
people living with HIV:
“It is not who you are but what you do
.”
We are all at
risk.
“Having HIV has not made us less than human beings.
”
A human rights approach is the foundation of Positive
Health, Dignity, and Prevention.
“All of Jamaica is responsible for the prevention of HIV.
”
It is a shared responsibility.
“
We deserve a family too.
”
Sexual and reproductive
health and rights must be recognised and exercised by
everyone, regardless of HIV status.
Positive Health, Dignity, and Prevention aims to:
1.
Expand policy and programming approaches that support
people living with HIV to make
informed choices
and live
free
of stigma, discrimination, and gender-based violence.
2.
Scale-up and expand
community-owned
HIV counselling,
testing, care, support, treatment, and prevention programmes
that include sexual and reproductive health and rights.
3.
Expand
literacy programmes
related to care, treatment, and
human rights.
4.
Promote
shared responsibility
for HIV prevention.
5.
Invest in the
social capital
of organisations/networks of people
living with HIV and key populations.
Nine key components are needed to put Positive
Health, Dignity, and Prevention into practice:
Treatment literacy
Empowerment
Gender equality
Human rights
Sexual and reproductive rights
Health promotion and access
Preventing new infections
Social and economic support
Meaningful involvement of people living with HIV in
measuring impact
Do you still hear (and see) these messages?
“HIV-positive people should not have sex.”
“HIV-positive people should use condoms or go to prison.”
“
HIV-positive women should not have children.”
Do you see (and hear)
messages like this?
What’s helped to
move towards positive
health, dignity, and
prevention?
What’s still needed?
This presentation was collaboratively developed
by leaders of the people living with HIV community
(Pilot Cohort of the GIPA Capacity Building Project,
National HIV/STI Programme, and the Jamaican
Network of Seroposities or JNPlus), with support
from the Health Policy Project (HPP)/Jamaica.
Updates were provided by Health Policy Plus
(HPP’s follow-on project), in close collaboration
with people living with HIV and other key
stakeholders in Jamaica.
Facilitator Notes: Explain that this presentation provides a brief introduction to the global framework of Positive Health, Dignity, and Prevention (PHDP) and guide participants through the slide deck.
Positive Health, Dignity, and Prevention (PHDP) is a framework that focuses on improving the lives of people living with HIV through positive health, dignity, and prevention strategies. This approach is rooted in human rights and led by individuals with HIV, aiming to support their well-being and sense of self-worth while also benefiting public health outcomes. The PHDP policy framework emphasizes the involvement of people living with HIV in the HIV response, equipping them with essential information and skills, and addressing legal and structural barriers to health and dignity.
