Your Path to Living in Australia with HIV
Date & Time: Wednesday, 20 November – 2:00pm to 3:00pm AEST
Venue: Online
With Special Guests: David Carter and Rhys Evans from the Health+Law Partnership
Hosted by: Positive Women Victoria
Immigration law and policy can be complicated and changes frequently. In this webinar, our special guests David Carter, lead researcher with the Health+Law Partnership, and Rhys Evans, researcher and former Projects, Policy and Law Reform Solicitor at the HIV AIDS Legal Centre (HALC), will answer you immigration questions and outline current policies relating to health-related regulations and the different immigration visa options available.
The HIV AIDS Legal Centre (HALC) is not-for-profit, specialist community legal centre, and the only one of its kind in Australia. It is part of a consortium of health, community and legal sector organisations that make up the Health+Law Partnership.
If you have not done so already, we recommend that you read HALC’s Positive Migration Guide on immigration for people with HIV, their family members and others who fail the health criteria for an Australian visa. It will also be useful to anyone who seeks to come to Australia and who fails the health criteria on the grounds of them posing a significant cost to Australia.
