Mr Aaron Cogle – Beyond the meaningful involvement of people with HIV in HIV-related research

Mr Aaron Cogle, Executive Director of National Association of People with HIV Australia (NAPWHA), talks about the important role people with HIV play in HIV-related research and where the gaps are in our current understanding. Kirby Institute Seminar Series – 30 March 2021 People with HIV have a long history of involvement in HIV-related research. However, their specific role in HIV prevention has yet to be fully understood. Aaron will analyse what constitutes the ‘meaningful involvement’ of people with HIV, how we move beyond mere involvement to something more substantial, and what we can gain by changing the narrative around HIV prevention research. Aaron will also talk about how NAPWHA utilises research about positive people and where the gaps are in our current understanding of the Australian HIV-positive population. 0:00​ Webinar welcome 1:17​ Introducing Mr Aaron Cogle 1:54​ Mr Cogle on beyond the meaningful involvement of people with HIV (MIPA) in HIV-related research 30:22​ Q&A -- Mr Aaron Cogle Executive Director, National Association of People with HIV Australia (NAPWHA) Aaron Cogle is the Executive Director of the National Association of People with HIV Australia.
