Welcome to Health Connections
The rapidly developing global HIV/AIDS pandemic is causing
devastating human suffering and socio-economic burden. In many
countries health practitioners are ill equipped and prepared
to deal with all aspects of the epidemics and its consequences. Currently,
many health practitioners miss important international developments
and direct support because of language barriers. As a consequence
the most deprived and vulnerable i.e. young people living with HIV/AIDS
or at risk to become infected do not get the prevention, care,
treatment and support so desperately needed.
The Health Connections Initiative website strives
to facilitate the exchange of knowledge and expertise between
non-English speaking health professionals and English speaking HIV/AIDS,
TB and demand and harm reduction specialists across the globe.
Through this easy-to-use website, interaction and information sharing is
established and promoted among health practitioners with a wide variety of
backgrounds and experiences.
The Health Connections Initiative relies upon the support and
expertise of international experts like you who are willing to
support us by supplying much needed up-to-date information to those who
most need it. If you are interested in becoming a member of the
Initiative and are willing to share your expertise from time-to-time, we
kindly invite you to
register
as a member of our global
network of experts.
