Short profile:
HIV i-Base is a treatment activist group, HIV-positive led and committed to providing timely HIV treatment information to HIV-positive people and to health care professionals. i-Base was formed in April 2000 by the former publications, editorial and meetings team from the AIDS Treatment Project, London. All resources are produced with the involvement of HIV-positive people and are reviewed by a medical advisory group. Medical consultants are listed separately for each publication. All resources, including treatment guides and the website, have been reviewed by both medical advisors and people living with HIV.
Detailed description:
More than any other health issue, HIV has changed the way that people are involved in health care. It has helped develop the active involvement of people in choices relating to their own health. Direct involvement of HIV-positive people and their advocates has changed the way that drugs are developed, researched, priced and accessed. i-Base is a treatment advocacy and activist organisation. The resources are developed to help train other community activists and to develop community networks.
