ABOUT US
CHIVA Africa has been supporting rural clinics in KwaZulu Natal, South Africa for almost 20 years, transforming the lives of children and adolescents exposed to and living with HIV. We have achieved this through partnerships, case-based mentorship, empowering healthcare workers and more recently our youth participation programme.
Our beneficiaries – children and adolescents exposed to or living with HIV; and healthcare workers delivering life-saving treatment and care – are at the core of our work
