HIVSA is a not-for-profit company that was established in 2002 as well as a strategic partner of the Gauteng Provincial Departments of Health and Social Development. HIVSA empowers individuals, community workers and organisations by developing their capacity and resilience to effectively address socio-economic and health issues in the context of high HIV and AIDS burden with the ultimate vision of creating an HIV free generation.
We support transformative, locally-led change by partnering with community-based organizations that support young people, their sexual and reproductive health and rights, and gender-based violence prevention.
HIVSA believes that providing easy access to relevant, updated public health information will have a positive impact on health outcomes including HIV as access to information educates and empowers people and promotes health seeking behaviour for themselves and their families. Having substantial experience in producing and disseminating large volumes of Information, Education and Communication (IEC) materials, HIVSA recognises the importance of using mobile phone technology for information and mHealth education.
