#HIV2022Istanbul is the second edition of the Civil Society HIV Conference Project, which was implemented by Red Ribbon Istanbul in 2021 for the first time in Turkey's nearly 40-year history of struggle with HIV.​

​

Red Ribbon Istanbul, as the NGO with the highest international cooperation, project partnership and visibility among all the actors in the field, after the congresses of physicians' organizations held at the national level for years, it is necessary to ensure that sufficient institutional capacity/joint capacity/maturity for a congress organized entirely by civil society, which has many examples in the world. With the thought that the need has arisen, the first Civil Society HIV Conference in Turkey's nearly 40-year history of struggle with HIV was organized in 2021 and successfully implemented.
