AIDS Legal Network, 5 February 2007.

The ‘Gender Violence & HIV and AIDS’ resource and training manual is a new publication looking at a holistic approach in response to the links between gender violence and HIV and AIDS. The resource and training manual includes a potpourri of concepts and realities of gender, gender violence and HIV, a gendered look at prevention, treatment, support and care (of both gender violence and HIV and AIDS); and relevant legislation (including fundamental rights and freedoms).

The manual aims to give insights, and to provide valuable information and resources to everyone, including trainers, facilitators, educators, about the linked pandemics of gender violence, HIV and AIDS and stigma and discrimination of the ‘other’.

For more information on the manual and/or how to get a copy/ or to access training on the manual, please contact the AIDS Legal Network (ALN), South Africa, on campaign@aln.org.za.
