This initiative is based on informing and informed understanding about causes and issues of HIV and AIDS from the perspective of governance and power relationship, unequal and unjust power equations. HIV and AIDS is also a political issue, warranting a political response from governments and the corporate sector. The role of civil society and non-government organisations is crucial in making change happen on ground. ActionAid is committed to galvanise synergy and facilitate co-ordinated action.
The issue of HIV and AIDS has socio-political, gender and cultural implications. There is a need to initiate organised action and concentrate public effort to fight the stigma and discrimination against people living with HIV. Changing this situation requires both societal action and public advocacy.
