Positive Women of the World: PWOW

Description

PWOW is an important collection of life, of HIV-positive women's lived experiences, and a snapshot of some of the lived realities for women - HIV-positive women, Black women, Indigenous women, women of colour, queer women, and transgender women. The realities of HIV, both medical and social, are not well- known to the general public, and there are often harmful misconceptions. This is even more true for Positive women. Women living with HIV are often overlooked, underfunded, an neglected by our societal, social, and medical systems, which are steeped in sexism and racism. All thirty interviews were conducted between October 2018 and November 2019. All ages, dates, and information in the interviews are up to date as of 2019. The resource information is up to date as of March 2022.
