SHDEPHA+

with HIV/AIDS. It is a national non-governmental organization,

SHDEPHA+ originated from the initiatives of fifteen people living with
HIV/AIDS whose goal was to create a network and to mobilize resources to
help people living with HIV/AIDS and to fight the spread of the

over the years SHDEPHA+ has expanded beyond HIV/AIDS and related issues
to other development interventions and now covers both infected and

SHDEPHA+ works independently, developing, managing and implementing its
own projects; though all branches share one constitution and
