Who is PLDI for?

PLDI welcomes people *living with HIV* who have not previously taken Core
Training.  PLDI is a professional development opportunity – it is not a
support group. People attending the training are expected to be present and
participating for the duration.  Successful training graduates receive a*
Certificate!   *

Throughout the training, participants are encouraged to see themselves as
part of a larger community of PLHIV, value and appreciate the unique
experiences that accompany anyone living with HIV, and understand the
history and evolution of the global and local responses to HIV.

However, there are limitations to what this course is able to achieve. It
is not designed to assist PLHIV to come to terms with their diagnosis, nor
is it a therapeutic intervention. It is designed for PLHIV who are
interested in building their leadership and resilience capacities either in
the HIV sector or their personal lives.    (HIV-Positive Leaders come from
all walks of life)

Ensuring that PLDI graduates are supported, prepared and able to go back
into their communities to commit to social change and to challenge HIV
stigma is an ambitious undertaking. It is our belief that it is the
collective effort and the passion of PLHIV who have driven many of the
changes in HIV policy, practice, and research and it is PLHIV who will
affect how we see HIV tomorrow.

Many Grads have used the PLDI Trainings as a springboard for volunteering,
paid work, community engagement or simply seeing their lived experience of
HIV being translated into more self-confidence and pride.

Know someone living with HIV who might be interested in this training pass

*Past participants quotes from our Pilot online training in June-July 2021
 *

*- “ I have been telling all my friends about how valuable this was to be
with other people with HIV and hear about what they are doing, their
challenges and their struggles.”*

*- “I wish it was in person so we could really get to know the classmates
and even the leaders on a personal level, but that being said I’m blessed
to have experience this course as I did through technology.”*

*- “I feel I have gained more knowledge on becoming a leader in my
community. I will take and use each of the 5 practices in consideration.”*

Thank you for your leadership,
