About
I work for the Code of Good Practice for NGOs Responding to HIV/AIDS and thought joining wiseearth would be a great opportunity to connect with other people and organisation responding to HIV/ AIDS.
Please find as follows a brief overview of the Code:
What is the Code?
The Code of Good Practice was developed by NGOs for NGOs to help guide our work by providing a framework to which we can commit and be held accountable.
Drawing on 20 years of knowledge and experience, the Code sets out key principles, practice and evidence base required for successful responses to HIV.
When the Code was launched in 2004, 160 NGOs had already committed to its shared vision of good practice.

The Code Secretariat is pleased to announce that we will be hosting a skills-building workshop on MIPA at the International AIDS Conference in Mexico City this summer. Framed by the principles of the NGO Code of Good Practice, the workshop will provide an interactive platform for highlighting evidence-based good practice & discussing the issues, obstacles and ways of successfully involving PLHIV in the response, with a special focus on HIV positive women and girls.
Co-facilitators Global Network of People Living with HIV/AIDS (GNP+) and the International Community of Women Living with HIV/AIDS (ICW) will help participants identify ‘next steps' for improving MIPA within their organisations and programmes using the Code Project's new MIPA Self-Assessment Tool. The workshop will help participants measure where their programmes stand along the lines of good practice and develop an action plan on how to improve MIPA in their organisations.
We encourage you to attend this session -not only will it be a fantastic opportunity to dive into this issue, but it will also be a chance to network with other Code signatories and supporters.
