The Solomon Islands Planned Parenthood Association (SIPPA) has signed a tripartite agreement with Tavuli News and the Ministry of Health and Medical Services to strengthen public awareness of HIV and AIDS.
The partnership highlights the role of media, especially digital platforms, in sharing accurate and culturally relevant health information, a statement from the SIPPA on Sunday said.
Through television and social media, the initiative aims to reduce stigma, encourage regular HIV testing, promote safe practices, and support communities living with HIV.
As part of the agreement, short television advertisements will be produced with guidance from SIPPA and the Ministry of Health, the statement said.
These messages will air on TTV 1 and be shared across Tavuli News’ social media channels to reach audiences nationwide.
The project is funded by the Australian Government’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, through the Pacific Women Lead Program at the Pacific-Community-SPC.
