The Phaung Daw Oo
Health Promoting Program (PHPP) has been in co-operation with the Burnet
Institute since 2004. The program was started in 2004 October for only school
based program for HIV/AIDS prevention. At that time, PHPP targeted for
G-IX students and cover for HIV/AIDS, reproductive health and life skill
knowledge. After three years have been implemented for school based program,
project has expanded for Home Based Care Program which is targeted for
Patyeingyi Township mainly attached with Phaung Daw Oo clinic for treatment
program. This program targeted for People Living with HIV/AIDS. Hence, after 2
years later which mean they have well experiences on doing Home Based Care and
clinical care we, our program started to try for ART from 3D Fund Round-3.
Together they have been implementing as A Partnership Approach with
"Burnet Institute" (INGO) for the Care & Support project
(including providing ART treatment) with finance from the Three Diseases
Funding.
As current
condition, PHPP is now implementing for Home Based Care, Treatment and
clinical
care services to people living with HIV/AIDS. As additional program from
Home Based Care, we also implement as Psychosocial Support Activities
for Orphans and Vulnerable Children. Otherwise, For Adolescence
reproductive
health program is now stopped for one year and no more funding support
from
organization. Therefore, program staff decided to stop for one year and
they
will try next year for students based program for "Adolescence
Reproductive Health"
However, to see
previous activities for students based program they have been trained “180”
peer educators from G-IX who have already got skills on knowledge (HIV/AIDS,
STI and life skills for their life)
Peer Education training (For Adolescence Reproductive Health)
