Solidarité Sida is an association founded in 1992 by Antoine de Caunes and Luc Barruet, whose mission is to fight against the exclusion of sufferers and access to treatment for all. An internationally recognized association, Solidarité Sida uses cultural events as a vector for prevention and awareness-raising. In 1999, the association created the Solidays festival, which has since become one of the world's leading music festivals. Over the past 30 years, Solidarité Sida has devoted €100 million to awareness-raising, prevention and patient support initiatives, supported 230 associations worldwide, and brought together 4.6 million young people at its events. Over 7 million young people have already taken part in Solidarité Sida initiatives such as the Solidays festival, the "#Treatment4all" or "Printemps solidaire" campaigns, the "Sex in the city" exhibition or the "La Nuit du Zapping" tours. The pleasure of being useful and the pleasure of being together form the basis of its approach. Solidarité Sida has around 40 permanent staff and over 3,000 volunteers. Thanks to the enthusiasm and commitment of each and every one of them, 110 prevention and patient assistance programs are underway in 21 countries.
