摘要：The Academy for Educational Development (AED) held a long-term, multi-country, multi-continent program funded by the United States Department of Labor (USDOL). It aimed to help both employees and employers deal with the impacts of the increase in the spread of human immunodeficiency virus infection/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) in the various parts of the world. The focus of this program was to work in the private sector to ameliorate the negative impacts of HIV/AIDS in the workplace. Measuring employees’ and employers’ attitudes towards people working with HIV/AIDS as part of early interventions was the key to the project success. AED has subsequently been acquired by Family Health International, to create FHI 360, which also does a significant amount of work with people living with HIV/AIDS. The project has ended but the survey results, while analyzed in 2006, continue to be relevant for practitioners planning to implement similar activities through corporate- and donor-funded health in the workplace initiatives. Both co-authors now work at Creative Associates International.
