Description
The Gilead Asia Pacific Rainbow Grant is a biennial funding program launched in 2018 to support community-led projects across the Asia Pacific region that address HIV care, education, and awareness. The grant is designed to empower, engage, and partner with local organizations to reduce HIV-related stigma, improve health equity, and create sustainable impact for people living with or affected by HIV. Projects funded often focus on marginalized and key populations, integrate mental wellness into HIV care, and uplift communities that are underserved or "left behind." Digital innovations, capacity building, peer support, and stigma reduction are recurring themes. The grant aims to accelerate progress towards global HIV goals, including the UNAIDS 95-95-95 targets.
