Honored to speak at @upenn.edu @pennmedicine.bsky.social #RedRibbonConnect. Shared how communities—esp. MSM—turn lived experience into leadership in the HIV response. Imagine if every HIV policy & service was shaped by those most affected.

People living with HIV in fear as impact of donor funding cuts begin to show in eSwatini

HIV prevention services have been heavily affected by the pause on the US President's Emergency Plan for Aids in the country, with remote mobile clinics that served hard-to-reach people now closed

“Academic recognition is not just nice to have.
If we can't trust others and we don't reward each other for their contributions, then the system is broken.” 💯

"The day the paper was published should have been a moment of pride. Instead, it felt like a quiet erasure."👇

This article is a story of how a researcher contributed meaningfully to a study, only to find themself excluded from authorship when the paper was published.

3️⃣ Finding my academic home.
As a qualitative researcher, I’m used to defending my work in a positivist space.
But here? No need to explain. No need to translate. I found a community who spoke my language.
I felt seen.

2️⃣ Contesting borders—critically & kindly.
One moment: a delegate challenged my use of “sounding American.” She said, “You mean from the USA?” 🌎
A powerful reminder that language reflects power, and ISCHP gave space to unpack this together.

1️⃣ How far we’ve come—and how far we need to go.
I was in awe of the critical work on abortion, Indigenous rights, LGBTQIA+ health, & more. Psychology was used to liberate—not just observe.
But we must still do better at centering lived experiences.

Attending my first ever @ischp.bsky.social conference #ISCHP2025 @uniofgalway.bsky.social was unforgettable.

It was an academic, emotional, and personal experience that made me reflect deeply on psychology, justice, and community.

In our previous policy brief, we highlighted three key actions to tackle the #HIV and mental health crises in the 🇵🇭: 1) Engage communities in the HIV response; 2) Equitably increase funding and resources; 3) Enhance a multi-sectoral HIV response.

The #Philippines is facing one of the highest increases in people living with #HIV. Despite this public health emergency, efforts tackling HIV could be at risk due to uncertainty in global HIV funding, especially following the US's halt of #PEPFAR.
