From 26–30 July 2026, Y+ Global will join the global HIV community at the 26th International AIDS Conference (AIDS 2026) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
At #AIDS2026, organisations from across the world will come together to share innovations, services and solutions under the theme #RethinkRebuildRise. Y+ Global is proud to showcase our work alongside partners from around the world while amplifying the voices and leadership of young people living with and affected by HIV.
"AIDS 2026 comes at a defining moment for the global HIV response. As we rethink, rebuild and rise together, we must continue investing in the leadership, innovation and lived experiences of young people. We look forward to reconnecting with long-standing partners, meeting new friends and collaborators, and bringing together communities and advocates from every corner of the world to share ideas, learn from one another and explore how we can move the HIV response forward—together."Ikka Noviyanti
Executive Director of Y+ Global
Throughout the week, Y+ Global and members of our global network will lead and contribute to panel discussions, workshops and community events, highlighting the importance of meaningful youth engagement, community leadership and integrated approaches to health from all angles.
