AHF Georgia Says ‘Just Use It’ on Int’l Condom Day

Let’s commemorate by sharing the good news that condoms are still the best option for helping you and your partner keep intimate times safer and fun. This year, AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF) Georgia is proud to announce a special event in honor of International Condom Day, taking place on February 13, to educate on condom use, distribute free condoms, and encourage everyone to start or continue using condoms regularly.

As part of our ongoing campaign, AHF Georgia will convene educational seminar in collaboration with media partners  to explore the theme of “Safe Sex and Preventing Sexually Transmitted Infections“.  Event aims to highlight the critical role of condoms in safeguarding public health and promoting comprehensive education and accessibility. Attendees will have the opportunity to be engaged in discussions led by expert speakers and learn about the importance of practicing safer sexual behaviors. In addition to the informative sessions, AHF Georgia is pleased to offer free and confidential screenings for HIV infection, hepatitis B and C, and syphilis. This “One prick, four results” screening initiative aims to provide individuals with accessible and comprehensive healthcare services.

‘Our primary focus is on expanding access to condoms, particularly among young people. International Condom Day serves as a platform to urge governments and public health institutions to advocate for and facilitate access nationwide, empowering individuals to safeguard themselves and their loved ones. This is especially critical given the staggering statistic of 1.7 million new HIV infections worldwide each year. The activities slated for this day are designed to heighten awareness. The campaign will offer free and anonymous participation, ensuring accessibility and confidentiality for all. Additionally, quick HIV testing and distribution of condoms will be provided` – stated Nino Khetaguri, Program Manager at the AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF) Georgia.

According to the World Health Organization, over 1 million people globally acquire an STI every day, and 117 million new HIV infections since 1990 have been averted thanks to condoms. This is why, on ICD and beyond, the world must remember—condoms are safe, sexy, and essential to ending HIV/AIDS.

Observed annually on February 13, International Condom Day gives people around the world a chance to receive free condoms and essential information about proper condom use and other sexual health issues. On ICD 2024, we urge everyone worldwide to remember that condoms save lives and remain the best option for preventing HIV, other sexually transmitted infections, and unplanned pregnancies.
