<p>With the risk of acquiring HIV globally 25 times higher amongst men who have sex
with men, and 34 times higher for transgender women, it is clear that this remains
one of the greatest healthcare challenges for LGBT+ people. The UK Government continues
to be a major donor to international health organisations and programmes, including
the Global Fund.</p><p>'Safe To Be Me: A Global Equality Conference' will take place
29 June-1 July 2022, coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the first official London
Pride marches. The global event will be the first of its kind in the UK, bringing
together governments, policy experts and international organisations who advocate
for human rights in every corner of the globe, as well as representatives from business
who are leading the way in their respective sectors. It will provide many opportunities
to highlight the amazing work that the UK government and our partners are doing to
improve the lives of LGBT+ people around the world, including in accessing healthcare
and other services.</p>
