The first action by @ActUpDublin was 2 years ago this week. We were ringing the alarm bell about Ireland's #HIV crisis outside The Dept of Health @roinnslainte just before #WorldAIDSDay 2016 - HIV IS A POLITICAL CRISIS #ACTUP

We talk to the public, we engage with the communities affected by #HIV, we lobby politicians, write reports and submissions to Government, we organise pubic meetings and events. We demonstrate, We educate We are not silent. #ACTUP

#ACTUP in Ireland is a growing #HIV activist movement. In July this year @ActupCork formed. ACT UP Cork protest, campaign and engage just like Dublin chapter. If you wanna involved check out facebook.com/ACTUPCork/
