| Mission | Founded in 1994, SIDACTION is a collective of researchers, healthcare professionals, and humanitarian associations, in France and in developing countries, who all share a common goal: the development of scientific and medical research programs and the support of prevention and assistance programs for those living with HIV-AIDS. Sidaction is an interdisciplinary think-tank, which over the years has acquired a respected expertise in all aspects of HIV-AIDS, enabling it to reinforce and build on existing methods used to fight the illness. Sidaction also defends the critical role played by patients and their support networks in the day-to-day battle against HIV-AIDS and, as such, focuses its support on community-based health programs. |

| Activities | Sidaction’s engagement in developing countries and countries in transition began in 1994. This commitment is the foundation of the organization’s development approach: Sidaction provides local associations in developing countries with long-term financial support and technical assistance in implementing treatment, assistance, and prevention programs. The associations supported by Sidaction are all independent and non-governmental. They are also fundamentally community-based – those living with HIV-AIDS, as well as their friends and family, are directly involved in the associations’ initiatives and day-to-day functioning. |
