Download Toolkit voor Positive Change: programma voor een community based antwoord op HIV/AIDS

The  Positive  Change: Children, Communities and Care (PC3) Program (2004-2009)  emphasizes  community-based,  results-oriented, and family-focused  efforts which reduce the negative impact of HIV and AIDS on children,  families  and  communities. 

The program strategies, outlined in Toolkit  for  Positive Change: Providing Family-Focused, Results-Driven and Cost-Effective  Programming  for  Orphans and Vulnerable Children, increase capacity  of  local  organizations and communities to positively respond to the needs of OVC by harnessing partner strengths, implementing a multilevel tiered  approach,  building  on  existing  community mechanisms, empowering community  mobilization, and providing quality services defined by children and caregivers. 

The PC3 Program is a consortium of international and local non-governmental  organizations  (NGOs)  and  community  groups  working to deliver  coordinated and comprehensive care and support services to 530,000 vulnerable  children  and their families throughout Ethiopia.  The level of support  generated  at  scale  in  Ethiopia provides an important guide for similar responses in Africa and globally.

-  Faces  of Positive Change, which documents program successes and lessons learned,  is  the companion book to Toolkit for Positive Change.  This book is  a celebration of three groups; children, families and communities whose participation  in  the  PC3  program is creating significant changes in the lives  of  individuals  and  families  across  the country.  By sharing the positive  changes,  the  book is intended to be an inspiration and guide to confronting similar challenges in creative and sustainable ways.

Both  components  of  the  Positive  Change package will be featured on the international BCN website  in the coming weeks.  After that, they can be located by using the search function on the homepage.
