When should you get tested for HIV?

You don’t need to wait for symptoms.

It may be a good time to test if you’ve had s*x without a condom, have a new partner, haven’t tested for a while, or simply want to know your status.

Testing is quick, confidential and an important part of looking after your s*xual health.

❤️ Knowing your status means taking care of yourself.

"AIDS 2026 in Rio de Janeiro has come to an end, but its key messages will continue to shape our work. Over the past week, the International AIDS Conference brought together researchers, healthcare professionals, advocates, communities, and organizations from around the world to share the latest science, exchange ideas, and shape the future of the global HIV response.

One of the key focuses at the AHF booth was the global campaign 'Syphilis Is Serious: It's Curable. Get Tested.'—raising awareness about the growing syphilis epidemic while reinforcing the importance of HIV prevention and care.

We're proud that AHF Europe Bureau was represented by Daniel Reijer, Bureau Chief, and that an abstract from AHF Ukraine was accepted and presented at AIDS 2026.

Key takeaways from AIDS 2026:
• Communities are not hard to reach. Services need to become easier to access, more visible, and more relevant.
• One size doesn't fit all. Whether it’s HIV self-testing, oral PrEP, long-acting PrEP, condoms, or s*xual health screening, everyone should have access to the prevention option that works best for them.

While not everyone was in Rio, every country across AHF Europe Bureau is part of the same mission—expanding access to prevention, testing, treatment, and compassionate care for everyone, everywhere. ❤️

A stable global economy depends on sustainable debt for developing countries.

Many developing countries pay two to ten times higher interest rates than wealthier nations while also losing billions of dollars that flow out each year through debt servicing and financial leakage, often back into wealthy countries.

This weakens health systems, slows development, and increases global risk.
Leaders in the U.S. and Europe can help lead meaningful reform.

Our Freedom from Debt campaign calls for: ✔ Implement a Borrowers’ Forum to strengthen the Global South’s negotiating power ✔ Ensure debt pauses during public health emergencies or climate disasters ✔ Back a global AI solidarity levy on AI firms’ capital investments and revenues

Unsustainable debt is a human rights issue. A fairer, more balanced system benefits everyone.
