Luanda — The Angolan Red Cross (CVA) is due to sign here, with the Fight for Life Association (LPV) an agreement of co-operation, that aims a joined work in the provinces where is registered the biggest rate of stigma and discrimination against HIV/AIDS positive people.
The agreement consists in the supply by LPV of members who with their evidence might aid the Red Cross to sensitise the population, in a way that the infected people are not discriminated.
This information was advanced today to Angop, by the co-ordinator of CVA's HIV/AIDS programme, Ambrosio Casal, who considered important, since it allows a connection between both organisations to fight against the pandemic.
