MPact works to produce a series of toolkits to encourage information exchange between our global constituents and partners. Topics range from emerging HIV prevention strategies to innovative research and advocacy updates.
Men who have sex with men have played a central role in designing and implementing HIV prevention, treatment, care and support programs since the start of the HIV epidemic. For more than 30 years, their expertise, creativity, energy and fortitude have shaped the global response to the epidemic in important and indelible ways. The MSM Implementation Toolkit (MSMIT) seeks to honor and support the legacy forged by men who have sex with men at the community level and which they continue to create. It therefore gives particular attention to programs run or led by men who have sex with men themselves, in contexts where this is possible.

MPact designed the Speaking Out Initiative in 2010 for a broad, global audience, with a rationale that expanding access to effective and tailored HIV programs must go hand-in-hand with strategies for supporting and resourcing rights- based advocacy. MPact recognizes that when human rights are protected, fewer people become infected, and those living with HIV and their families are better able to cope with the virus. This is especially important for sexual minorities and other marginalized groups.
