Projects
KCs & maternal health
By documenting individual stories and local or national campaigns, KCs have increased community and civil society understanding of the connection between HIV and the death of women during childbirth.
View project informationKCs & National Partnership Platforms
Many KCs represent the views of their communities on National Partnership Platforms (NPPs), national alliances of civil society organisations, which come together to share information, ideas and strategies on how to more effectively respond to HIV, AIDS, TB and other health issues.
View project informationKCs & the Global Fund
The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria has committed US$ 21.7 billion in 150 countries to support large-scale prevention, treatment and care programs. As part of the Fund’s 2011 Partnership Forum consultation, KCs were commissioned to interview communities in Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe and the Caribbean to hear their views on the Fund’s work in these regions.
