Supporting children with HIV and their families during the COVID-19 pandemic
Results from the Aidsfonds COVID-19 Emergency Response Fund in 2020-2021
To respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact of government measures and restrictions, Aidsfonds set up a COVID-19 Emergency Response Fund for our partners in Aidsfonds project countries. With €192,193 from this fund, 8 paediatric HIV partners in Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, Uganda and Zimbabwe, implemented community solutions to keep children and mothers living with HIV healthy in these challenging times. This way they managed to support continued access to essential HIV services, including life-saving ARVs.
