A civic organisation in Mali has won the International Service Human Rights Award for the Defence of Human Rights of People Living with HIV/AIDS.
The Association pour le Developpement et l’Appui Communautaire (ADAC) – the Association for Community Development and Support - works with people with HIV in the Sikasso region of Mali.
The awards highlight the special role international development workers play in protecting and defending the human rights of some of the world’s most vulnerable people. The awards are given in four categories: women, children, disabled people, and HIV and AIDS.
