| Who
we are |
| The
Malawi Network of People Living with HIV/AIDS,
abbreviated as MANET+ or MANET PLUS, came into
being on April 16, 1997. Founded and run by people
living with HIV and AIDS (PLWHA) who identify
the serious need to harmonize their activities,
MANET+ forms a web of solidarity of associations
or support groups of HIV positive persons and
the affected.
As a coordinating and facilitating umbrella
body, MANET+ is built upon democratic values
to ensure even and effective utilization of
scarce resources for all member support groups
and associations to allow maximum output delivery.
MANET+ plans to achieve its goal and objectives
through the facilitation of a free flow of information
and advocacy for greater involvement and acceptance
of PLWHA at all levels of society. |
