Social Volunteers Against AIDS (SoVAA) Programatic Strategic Assessment
SoVAA campaign is currently implemented in 20 Village Development Committees (VDCs) in partnership with Gangotri Rural Development Forum (GRDF). Similar programme was also started in Jhapa and Morang in partnership with SoVAA Support and Coordination Team (SSCT) – a well established network of SoVAA members which has been largely focusing on children and adolescents (14-24 years) to create new SoVAA and thus intensifying its peer education and HIV awareness initiatives in schools and communities. The main thrust of the SoVAA approach is to enhance the spirit of volunteerism to support a social movement against HIV and AIDS for creating an enabling environment for children affected by AIDS (CABA), single women and infected people to improve their access to social resources and mitigate the social impacts of the epidemic on individuals, families and communities.
