The site features more than 150 articles covering medical, personal, and cultural topics related to HIV-positive and negative women and girls.

• Targeted research: undertake research efforts that address the gaps

The Womanity Foundation

We would like to give more visibility to our local partners by translating some of their key documents in English. At the moment we are looking for translators from Spanish and Portuguese to English. However, as we scale our activities we might need other languages. We might also require some of our document to be translated from English to French and or German to promote our activities in Switzerland.
