MoVIHlízate

MoVIHlízate is a youth-led collective in Ecuador that champions the rights and well-being of young people living with or affected by HIV. Founded in 2018 with support from UNFPA (United Nations Population Fund), the platform addresses stigmatizing attitudes surrounding sexuality and HIV through a gender-diverse and culturally sensitive rights-based approach. Under the leadership of Anthony Guerrero since 2019, MoVIHlízate has become a vital space for friendship, support, and activism. The collective offers counseling, comprehensive sexuality education, and campaigns to combat discrimination and stigma. They also accompany individuals living with HIV when accessing health and protection services, ensuring they receive the care and support they need.
