Established in 1987, Dublin AIDS Alliance Ltd is a voluntary organisation working to improve conditions for people living with or affected by HIV and AIDS. Dublin AIDS Alliance Ltd is now trading as HIV Ireland. HIV Ireland is a voluntary, non-profit organisation, linked to various local and national networks.

Our vision is to contribute towards a significant reduction in the incidence and prevalence of HIV in Ireland and towards the realisation of an AIDS-free generation.

Our mission is to advocate for individuals living with HIV, preventing new HIV infections and combating HIV-related stigma and discrimination.

HIV Ireland also runs the MPOWER Programme, a suite of peer-driven community-level interventions which aim to achieve a reduction in the acquisition of HIV and STIs and an overall improvement of sexual health and wellbeing among gay, bisexual and men who have sex with men (gbMSM).
