December 1st was the World AIDS Day which gave an opportunity for people around the world to commit themselves to fight against HIV and AIDS and also support people living with HIV.
NGOs have been involved in campaigns to continue their work to raise awareness about HIV and AIDS and give treatment, counselling and other support to the people living with HIV. However, as we know, continued funding for implementing effective projects to address this problem is still challenging.
