UNDP's partnership with WHARF

[Guest guest]

Dear Forum,

A news item by Financial Express on UNDP's partnership with WHARF, the

Mumbai based non-profit organization promoted by Wockhardt and Harvard

Medical International, which was posted in this forum, has mentioned

that we would be doing " online trading " .

In this regard, we would like to clarify that the partnership is to

provide worldclass online counseling and treatment support and also

training to medical, paramedical staff and care-givers on HIV/AIDS

through our HIV/AIDS portal for Asia Pacific, www.youandaids.org. Please

be informed that we are not responsible for the wrong mention of " online

trading " in the report that might have been an inadvertent mistake by

the Financial Express reporter.

With thanks and regards

Sonam Yangchen Rana

Senior Advisor and Programme Coordinator

UNDP Regional HIV and Development Programme
