HIV/AIDS policy of the NGO

Over the years the treatment of infection with HIV have improved considerably and what was once a death sentence is now another treatable chronic disease. This has created challenges as there is considerable fatigue and complacency around HIV. However , we are continuing with our efforts, particularly as tuberculosis (TB) is closely associated with HIV infection and is a major problem in Southern Africa. HIV must be correctly managed if TB is to be beaten. The magnitude of the health challenge posed by HIV/AIDS is such that individuals companies cannot adequately address it alone and we reiterate that a comprehensive and effective response to HIV/AIDS requires a partnership between all stakeholders
