Civil Society Participation in curbing the spread and prevalence of HIV/ AIDS especially amongst women is pivotal, This is so especially from awareness raisin and policy formulating , monitoring and implementation.
In this regard Human Rights First Rwanda Association was privileged to host 30 Civil Society Organizations working in health issues and Human Rights in General in order to share thoughts and strategies aimed at empowering women with HIV / AIDS .
Access to amenities such as treatment and counselling services by health providers was one of the issues raised and emphasized. Many Organizations pledged to have in place awareness tools so as to bridge the knowledge gap existing especially in the rural areas.
These Ideas were taken down and a weekly follow up would be done by the members of a taskforce on promoting the rights of women living with HIV/AIDS.
