National Hepatitis C Treatment Health Promotion Campaign: It’s Your Right
This webinar will showcase EC Australia’s National Hepatitis C Treatment Health Promotion Campaign Strategy. The campaign seeks to reach people who currently inject drugs who are not accessing testing and treatment services and/or who may not be aware of DAA treatment. It aims to shift perceptions about treatment and support people to prioritise treatment.
The campaign was co-designed by a National Reference Group (NRG) and is using a peer led approach from development right through to delivery. The NRG is co-chaired by AIVL and EC Australia and partnership members include:
- Australian Injecting and Illicit Drug Users League (AIVL)
- National AIVL Peer Network
- Harm Reduction Victoria
- NSW Users and AIDS Association
- Peer Based Harm Reduction WA
- Hepatitis NSW
- Latrobe University
- EC Australia
- Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Representatives
- Enigma
This session will provide a snapshot of the:
- campaign strategy and the upcoming implementation phases across Australia
- peer-led experience of going online to design and using co-design as a method to produce the campaign strategy
- audience survey results that shaped our key messages and visuals.
