The WHAVE podcast was established by Salamander Trust as a space for women living with HIV to talk about their advocacy, activism and peer support work on sexual and reproductive health and rights.
The financial support of UNAIDS to Salamander Trust for Series 1 of The WHAVE podcast series and the thematic papers arising from it is gratefully acknowledged. However, their content and ideas expressed therein do not necessarily reflect the views and opinions of UNAIDS or engage the responsibility of UNAIDS.
Series 2 of The WHAVE, produced by Making Waves, will be starting soon – watch this space.
Meanwhile, you can listen to the 13 episodes of Series 1 at www.salamandertrust.net/project/podcasts, or on your usual podcast platform (iTunes, Google or Spotify). Series 1 includes 9 episodes in English, 3 in Spanish and 1 in French.
