South African Aids Council (SANAC) Women’s Sector

Arising from the National Women's Summit in March 2007, the SANAC Women's Sector was convened to make comments on the National Strategic Plan on HIV/AIDs (Department of Health). The Plan is a national, multi-stakeholder plan to address HIV/AIDs in South Africa. At the Summit a group of women' sector representatives to the National AIDS Council were elected, and a reference group of women to support them was established. The Women's Sector continues to be involved in the implementation of the Plan, and also in SANAC structures. Women'sNet is a member of the Reference Group and has supported communications through the provision of a listserv.
