short-term support for the development of the capacity of selected European networks with high public health importance and significant European wide out reaching to overcome specific geographical or developmental weaknesses. Specific attention will be paid to the capacity of non-governmental organisations active in the field of HIV/AIDS to support the integration on and adherence of People Living with HIV and AIDS (PLWHA) in anti-retroviral treatment programmes.
