The AIDS Consortium - Resource Centre
-------------------------------------
http://www.aidsconsortium.org.za

Established in January 1992, the AIDS Consortium is a network of over 
300 organisations, any community-based, and over 200 individuals.

The Consortium provides access to information on any aspect of 
HIV/AIDS and lobbies for a human rights-based response to the epi-
demic.

The AIDS Consortium Resource Centre has expanded and developed, and 
continues to be recognised as one of the most comprehensive sources 
of HIV/AIDS materials and resources in Southern Africa.

Most queries that come to the Consortium are referred to Resource 
Centre staff and in the course of 2000/2001 it became clear that the 
needs of community-based organisations go beyond information and ma-
terials provision.

Common requests are for:
* Information on funding sources;
* Assistance in compiling proposals, constitutions and other organ-
  isational documentation;
* Referral to specialised services e.g. home-based care, orphanages,
  legal advice etc.
