Context
Union of organizations of Serbia which are engaged in protecting persons who are living with HIV/AIDS (USOP) has a range of skills and competencies for representation and work on better information, defining priorities and models for support of PLHIV. Associations of PLHIV launched a dialog with the aim of creating joint system sustainability, and service support for the period 2015-2020, with the tendency to further professional development, which demands the following measures:
Establishing the forum OCD for HIV/AIDS (CSF) Serbia, as well as representative bodies of the largest networks and civil society organizations, with aim to make it easier for persons who live with, or are affected by the edges on HIV/AIDS, their parents and friends, to participate in development processes in national and European policy and implementation of European projects, the exchange of information, recommendations, and policy experiences with creators, European institutions, interested parties, EU members of civil society forum for HIV/AIDS (CSF), Members of the board of EU HIV/AIDS Think Tank forum comprising representatives of the member states and EU countries in the region, with participation of EU presidency group therapy for AIDS (EATG) and AAE EU AIDS network.
Forum of civil society organizations for HIV/AIDS (CSF) Serbia would have task to work on establishment of co-operation, capacity building of institutions and organizations and supporting the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Labor and Social Policy, Trustee for the protection of equality, Protector of Citizens, The Ministry youth and sports and other interested parties in the implementation, monitoring and evaluation of national response to HIV, so that their activities would be directed at the following activities:
To initiate the adoption of regulations which would have contributed to that counselling and testing are much more available to citizens who are more vulnerable to HIV, in order to be advised that a greater number should be tested, and thus learned about their HIV status. Early knowing of HIV status has great importance to the individual, and the collective level. It helps us to live more responsibly, more productive and fulfilled, and positive results in the case allows us to start the therapy in time which will prevent the emergence of AIDS.
To ensure the availability and new generic medications, because since 1998, or since the introduction of highly active combined antiretroviral therapy in treatment of HIV infection in the Republic of Serbia, are registred twice as less infected and triple less of those who died from AIDS. All the World researches cited in this area shows that antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is not only to improve the quality of life of PLHIV, but also reduces probability of transmission of viruses for 96 %. We can end an epidemic, but only if we are convinced that people have access to care and treatment. Unfortunately this approach, including access to HAART, is reduced.
To ensure a comprehensive resocialization, which includes medical, legal, psychological support, as well as professional empowerment and participation of PLHIV, setting co-ordinators from existing PLHIV organizations in five municipal Bus centers (Novi Sad, Nis, Pancevo, Belgrade and Subotica), who has duty of defineing standards of work and competencies in order to responsible, professional and timely performed advocacy, lobbying and advocacy at the local level in consultation, training and the provision of services, using internet technology, as well as a unique concept during which develop mechanisms delegation and define functions and responsibilities that are related to the development, implementation and monitoring of national and local strategies, action plans and development projects and programs.
To increase visibility and impact of PLHIV on decision-makeing in Serbia and the EU, involve PLHIV in the decision- making process in the local community, and that they are capable, they have strong information, methodological and qualified resources for representing the interests and protection of their civil rights and freedoms, to directly and continuously monitor the implementation activities in co-operation with its partner organizations and networks; that through innovative forms of entrepreneurship education gain knowledge and skills that allow them to start or improve their own business, the positive impact on improving socio-economic situation in the local and regional community.
To establish a national day dedicated to persons who have HIV to increase visibility. The initiative has received support from protector of gender equality for Republic of Serbia and has been published in the regular annual report for 2013. That was presented to National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia. The initiative is in line with good practice example in the United States of America and the goals of signed Memorandum of Co-operation that is supported by 15 civil society organizations from Serbia.
Support to political commitment to fight against HIV and review implementation of Dablin declaration in all segments.
Implementation of Resolution 1997 adopted in may 2014. by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe: 'The migrants and refugees in the fight against AIDS', which provides for programs to ensure an appropriate services for migrants with HIV, and in particular: 9.1 - regarding legal measures,9.2.- access to testing, treatment and preventive measures,9.3. - in connection with the policy measures.
