- Abstract
"The two case studies in this publication serve as examples of how community-level responses to HIV/AIDS could support the development and implementation of government policies, to address the impact of the epidemic. The case studies also underscore partnership with civil society, including non-governmental organizations, faith-based organizations, the public sector, and the private sector, as central to action and results. Furthermore, the case studies highlight the importance of involving people living with HIV/AIDS as key actors in developing policies and programmes that have an impact on their lives and the lives of their communities."
