Webinar Thursday February 13, 2025
10:00-11:30 AM Pacific time
Presented by the Public Health Agency of Canada
For Sexual Health Week 2025, join us for a thought-provoking webinar that will explore the current range of sexually transmitted and blood-borne infections (STBBI) prevention methods, including condoms, while examining how the conversation around their use is evolving.
Action Canada for Sexual Health and Rights will highlight the importance and benefits of providing person-centred sexual health care, normalizing conversations about sexual health and making informed choices. The Public Health Agency of Canada will discuss the tools available for STBBI prevention and how they’re prioritized within the STBBI Action Plan. Additionally, the Native Youth Sexual Health Network will highlight how they are using Indigenous Feminist Condom Cases & Beaded Condoms to help destigmatize harm reduction. The session will end with an opportunity to engage with the speakers through a Q&A period.
