Inequities in the access to HIV prevention and treatment for women in Ontario
EF 2024-25
Résumé
Cis and transgender women face systemic and social inequities which impact not only their exposure to HIV, but also their access to adequate counselling, prevention measures, diagnosis, and HIV treatment. These inequities are even more significant for women of colour, those involved in sex work or sexual exploitation, those who use drugs, newcomers (refugee status, migrant workers, visitors, undocumented) and those who identify as 2SLGBTQIA+. As a result, women represent an increasing proportion of HIV infections in Canada. This proposal focuses on exploring the barriers and facilitators to expanding HIV prevention and treatment to non-specialist providers in community settings including nurse practitioners and non-healthcare service providers.

As a result, women represent an increasing proportion of HIV infections in Canada.
