About us

This website aims to inform businesses and NGOs about effective management of HIV/AIDS in workplace settings.

The Asian Business Coalition on AIDS (ABC on AIDS) is a public-private partnership that continuously advocates corporations and their leaders to protect their business and the interest of their employees by taking action against HIV/AIDS. For this, we work together in an international alliance that draws on existing corporate capacities throughout the region to expand the business response.

ABC on AIDS works together with NGO partners in Thailand, Cambodia, Myanmar, Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, the Philippines, India, Nepal and Bangladesh.

The role that business can play

The utilization of corporate resources, such as management and marketing know-how, creativity, communication and distribution networks and funds - is of crucial importance to create effective prevention and intervention strategies.

Businesses can minimize the socio-economic depletion of resources as a result of the AIDS epidemic by educating workforces, implementing non-discriminatory policies and partnering with the public sector to provide medical care to HIV-positive employees. By doing so, businesses are able to promote the important message that people living with HIV/AIDS can have positive and productive lives.
