Drawing on the broad experience of UNAIDS, WHO and the International HIV/AIDS Alliance, the Handbook on access to HIV/AIDS-related treatment provides nongovernmental organizations, community-based organizations and groups of people living with HIV/AIDS with a practical resource for responding to issues of access to treatment for HIV/AIDS in developing countries. The handbookwill:

• build practical skills among NGOs, CBOs and PLWHA groups by using participatory activities and sharing experiences;
• provide a training resource for NGO support programmes, training organizations and individuals;

• facilitate ongoing learning about the HIV/AIDS-related treatment work of NGOs, CBOs and PLWHA groups.

The handbook is intended to assist groups in finding ways of understanding, planning and undertaking work on HIV/AIDS-related treatment. It is suitable for use with people of varying levels of experience and offers flexibility to facilitators who need to gear their work towards specific schedules and situations.
