AHF Unfiltered: India Spotlight
Bringing attention to incredible work happening across the Atlantic
GUEST BIO:
Dr. V. Sam Prasad is Country Program Director for India, overseeing the overall operations of the AHF for India Cares including the Rapid Testing Program and two HIV clinics in the country, one in Mumbai and one in Delhi.
Prince Manvendra Gohil is Grand Ambassador for AHF and Ambassador Consultant for AHF India. He was first introduced to AHF in 2015, and since then has served the people of India and beyond.
CORE TOPICS + DETAILS:
[8:29] - HIV in India
A challenging history with a promising future
HIV was first detected in India in 1986, but antiretroviral therapy didn’t arrive in the country until 2004. As a result, it’s estimated that around 2.3 million people live with HIV in India— one of the highest HIV populations in the world. But as we’ll learn throughout this episode, AHF is working tirelessly to change that.
[10:49] - Strategies for Saving Patients & Curing Stigmas
Finding success in a challenging environment
In India, the battle begins with mainstreaming communities most affected by the health needs the AHF serves— and reaching them after hours when they’re most active. Then AHF provides testing, free condoms (there is a strong stigma against condoms in India), and much more.
[17:51] - More People, Greater Reach
Top priorities for social engagement in India
AHF in India is actively trying to network with as many organizations, people, government agencies, corporate entities, and more. The more stakeholders you involve, particularly in a country of over a billion people, the more social reach you’ll be able to achieve with your message and your services.
[20:08] - Celebrating Lifesaving Wins
