The Global Network of People living with HIV and AIDS (GNP+) advocates to improve the quality of life of all people living with HIV. The central theme for the work of GNP+ for 2007 and beyond is Reclaiming Our Lives!.

The GNP+ programs are organised under three platforms for action:

• Sexual and reproductive health and rights of people living with HIV
• Human rights of people living with HIV
• Empowerment of people living with HIV

The platforms for action are a reflection of the Global Advocacy Agenda, which was agreed upon at the 1999 International Conference of People Living with HIV/AIDS in Warsaw, Poland. The Global Advocacy Agenda stated three main objectives:

• To increase access to treatment, care and prevention programs for all people living with HIV.
• To decrease stigma and discrimination directed towards people living with HIV
• Increased and more meaningful involvement of people living with HIV at all levels and in every aspect of the HIV response

GNP+ is currently responding to this challenge with the support of the Netherlands Ministry of Development Cooperation, the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (Norad), and the UK Department for International Development (DfID).
