On 22 November 2024, Avert and friends celebrated the organisation’s contribution to the HIV response, and marked the handover of its work to three new organisations in Kenya and Zimbabwe.
The event was held in Avert’s hometown, Brighton and Hove, UK, bringing together around 75 current and old staff, Trustees, donors, sector allies and peers, and suppliers. But most importantly we also welcomed the partner organisations we are now handing our work over to – OPHID, LVCT Health and Kenya Comms Hub.
The evening was a celebration of all that Avert has achieved over the last four decades, and also marked how we have been able to responsibly transition our work to these remarkable new organisations who will ensure evidence-based, sex positive digital health communications continues as an essential part of the HIV response going forward.
