HIV/AIDS and Human Rights

This manual introduces a human rights approach to HIV/AIDS care and prevention and includes the experience of the Asia Pacific Council of AIDS Service Organisations (APCASO) and other NGOs and community-based organisations that are working in the area of HIV/AIDS and human rights. The goals of this manual are to: raise awareness and promote shared understanding of a rights-based approach to HIV/AIDS; build capacity to apply a rights-based approach; and forge strategic alliances to promote mutual learning and further common objectives.

This manual has three sections:

• HIV/AIDS and Human Rights
• Documentation and Monitoring
• Advocacy

These sections are designed to be run in a workshop format. It is available in hard copy or CD-Rom.
