The SSLN is a space for African countries to come together and share best practices in support of greater HIV prevention capacity.
You will learn from your peers, discover new and effective prevention methods and approaches, and gain insights to inform grant making, policy decisions and programme implementation.
As we conclude this phase of the SSLN, we celebrate the collective efforts, learnings and impactful collaborations from across the region.
Since joining SSLN, I've gained significant research knowledge, particularly in HIV/AIDS. It's broadened my understanding and equipped me to present factual data, rather than relying on vague numbers, which has been crucial for my growth.
The PSAT helped identify bottlenecks in our HIV prevention activities and guided our Global Fund grant and the drafting of our first PrEP plan, ensuring we addressed HIV drug resistance.
It brought together HIV prevention actors—from the MOH, government, development partners, and communities—strengthening coordination and engagement by aligning everyone around a shared vision and goal
One thing I've learned about SSLN is its convening power—this Ghana KP workshop brings together all constituencies.
This network enables policymakers, program managers, and implementers to exchange South-to-South best practices, promoting effective strategies and addressing implementation gaps in resource-limited contexts.
I think the team is fantastic—young, energetic, and innovative. I hope they continue their great work with the same infectious energy and enthusiasm."
