Guest guest Posted January 18, 2002 Report Share Posted January 18, 2002 Dear All, I'm a new member in the group and I'm certainly happy to be in the group. I'm from Manipur working with IVDs for the last 10 years. Working with IVDs in Manipur itself covers HIV/AIDS issues. Many have died and many are in need of care and support. There is no doubt that Prevention plays a key role in the fight against Drugs and HIV/AIDS. But,what about those unfortunate victims ! As the Attrony General of India Soli Sorabjee has strongly come up for this victims,it is high time that doners/funding agencies also start dealing the CARE AND SUPPORT component as one of their top priorities. As fall out of this illness,more number of widows, orphans are on the increase. OI management itself is becoming a big burden to many of the affected/afflicted due to their state of economy with least concern for the anti-retroviral therapies available now. I would also request the group to keep me informed about TRAINING/WORKSHOP/ETC. So that myself and my staffs may get the chance to get to know more about how the world is fighting the issues. If any member/s wants to know more about the problem of IVDs in Manipur,please feel free to ask me.I represent KRIPA FOUNDATION (a national level NGO working in the field of ALCOHOLISM/ADDICTION AND HIV/AIDS)in the state of Manipur. With regards, Anand Kripa Foundation. " Anand Singh " <chanand43@...> __________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
