About STI Watch

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are widespread, remain difficult to prevent, and can have severe health consequences, which include genital swelling, pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility, and can increase the spread of HIV.

STIWatch.org is a new resource for the sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) community to better understand and advocate for STI vaccine and diagnostics research, development and rollout.

It is an initiative of AVAC with funding and support from the the Gates Foundation. Contact [email protected] for more information. To receive email updates from AVAC, signup here.

Thank you to World Health Organization and National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases for previous support.
