Ending HIV acknowledges the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the lands and waters on which we operate on throughout Australia and remind people that we are on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander land. Ending HIV also acknowledges the Elders and in particular Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people visiting this website.


The ENDING HIV campaign has been developed using funds from ACON’s primary funder, the NSW Ministry of Health and our own funds generated by fundraising activities. No funding or support from pharmaceutical companies has been received for this work.
