The Long-Term Survivors of HIV project brings together people who have lived with HIV since the early years of the epidemic, alongside community organisations, healthcare professionals and policy actors. This project aims to preserve the legacy of the survivors, make their experiences visible, and translate their stories into tools for awareness, care and decision-making.
Over four days, we worked on-site, combining communication, production and facilitation. We supported the coverage of sessions, guided participants on how to record their own stories, and produced a wide range of content, including interviews, short-form videos, portraits and supporting materials capturing both key moments and the individual voices at the heart of the project.
The result is a growing and diverse archive, bringing together dozens of stories across formats, and serving as a foundation for awareness, advocacy and intergenerational work around ageing with HIV.
Following the event, we continued supporting the project through content editing, planning publications for web and social media, and drafting key materials such as the final report and press releases.
