Code of Good Practice for NGOs responding to HIV /AIDS

[Guest guest]

This document sets out a number of Guiding Principles (in Chapter 2),

which apply a human rights approach to the range of HIV/AIDS-specific

health, development and humanitarian work undertaken by NGOs responding

to HIV/AIDS.

These principles provide a common framework applicable to

all NGOs engaged in responding to HIV/AIDS, and are embodied within good

practice principles, which guide both how we work as NGOs (Chapter 3

– Organizational Principles) and what we do (Chapter 4 –

Programming Principles). Chapter 5 includes Key resources such as tool

kits and manuals that can assist in putting the principles into

practice.

It also includes information about the process of `signing

on' to the Code and about implementation of the Code.
