Saving Lives China seeks to tailor HIV awareness messages to the particular needs and requirements of the Chinese environment. The broad challenges faced by China are similar to those we experience in the UK, however: stigma, fear, diagnosing the undiagnosed, and freeing up access to testing. Our methods might change, then, but our broad aims and strategy remain very much the same. We’re extremely excited to have the support of key figures in the third most populous province of China, Henan

The British delegation has recently returned from a trip of their own to Henan, at the invitation of Dr Wei Huang. We’ll have more on the exciting developments and opportunities that are resulting from these growing relationships soon.
