AIC launches a 5 year Strategic Plan

On Friday 26th June 2009, AIDS Information Centre launched a sh100b plan to ensure quality counselling and testing for HIV&AIDS is available to all in the next five years.

The strategic plan was launched by the minister for local Government Hon. AdoLf Mwesige. In his remarks he praised AIC for the good work done over the years and pledged the government support to ensure that many people continue to get to know their sero status.

“Our wish is that everyone in Uganda undergoes HIV testing. We want a situation where everyone knows his or her status for us to be able to fight the disease,” the chairperson AIC Board of Trustees, MP Chris Baryomunsi, said on Friday. At the moment, only 21% of Ugandan adults, or 2.5 million, know their HIV status.
