Training Course: Mainstreaming HIV and AIDS into Water, Hygiene and Environmental Sanitation Programmes, 14-20 July 2008, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia

Organised by: Regional Capacity Building Partners (RECABIP), Nairobi, Kenya

Many development institutions have done very little to understand the contextual impacts of HIV and AIDS on Water, Hygiene and Environmental Sanitation programmes and have not integrated programmatic actions to halt the spread of HIV and AIDS, and mitigate its impact in their programmes. Similarly, AIDS service organizations have not analyzed the role of safe water, sanitation and Hygiene in fostering quality care, prevention, treatment, impact mitigation services at individual, household and community level. The Course focuses on strengthening skills, knowledge and understanding practical mainstreaming tools and processes.

Course fees: US $1,000 (excluding international travel, accommodation and food).
