    Strategic HIV/AIDS Response in Enterprises (SHARE): Public-Private Partnership

    06 October 2015

SHARE’s principal objectives are to help overcome HIV employment-related discrimination and to prevent HIV by reducing risky behaviours among workers in selected economic sectors, especially those that might be more vulnerable to HIV due to working and related living conditions.
