Indigenous AIDS Awareness Week (IAAW) is a project of the Canadian Aboriginal AIDS Network (https://caan.ca), and events are organized in each city in collaboration with local organizations and activists. Events are meant to highlight the contributions and realities of our communities in the area of HIV/AIDS, and to spread awareness of important developments in the field. Contributors to the Montreal event include the Black & Indigenous Harm Reduction Alliance (www.blackindigneousharmredux.org) and Projet Autochtone du Québec (https://www.paqc.org/fr/accueil/), along with activist Doris Peltier (https://sociology.mcmaster.ca/the-feast-centre-for-indigenous-stbbi-research/about-us-1/doris-peltier)
