What we do:

The PrEP-MAP website aims to improve awareness, advocacy and ultimately access to PrEP across the Asia-Pacific region. It is a true intravention -- done by MSM community members in Asia and the Pacific for MSM community members in Asia in the Pacific. PrEP MAP is an exercise in community ownership and self-determination to generate demand, through a resource database on PrEP awareness and to advocate for and build demand in our communities for the right to access proven and comprehensive prevention approaches. It is the work of contributions from community activists, civil society organisations and policy advocates to co-create an educational and advocacy platform.  For consistency with other health promotion materials in the region, information is presented in English, though may be adapted to local languages and contexts. 

Who we are:

The PrEP-MAP website is brought to you by APCOM. APCOM works to improve the health and rights of gay men, other men who have sex with men and SOGIESC people across Asia and the Pacific.

Based in Bangkok, APCOM is a not-for-profit organisation representing and working with a network of individuals and community-based organisations across 38 countries in Asia and the Pacific.

APCOM has a primary focus on HIV because it is a key health issue for gay men and other men who have sex with men in the region. APCOM also addresses other related health issues for our communities such as sexual health, mental health and drug use.

APCOM also focuses on improving relevant human and legal rights across the region as discrimination, stigma, criminalisation and exclusion impact on the health outcomes of the communities we serve.
