Poster about the Global Fund and funding for women's rights work

Women human rights defenders living with HIV around the world are still in huge need of support from the Global Fund.

Here you can access a poster produced by networks of women living with HIV around the world, which highlights our particular concerns.

Did you know: The UN Trust Fund to End Violence Against Women, in January 2012, received 2,210 "concept notes" for projects to end violence against women around the world, totalling almost $1.1 billion, from 121 countries. Only a handful of these proposals reached round 2. 

Each day the US spends $1.9 billion on its military. If the Financial Transfer Tax were introduced, the US market alone would raise around $350 billion each year.
