Nutrition and HIV/AIDS Electronic Discussion Forum (2003-ongoing)

Project Website: http://www.pronutrition.org/

ProNut-HIV is a collaborative effort between the AED Center for Nutrition and the AED-SATELLIFE Center for Health Information and Technology. The electronic forum shares up-to-date information, knowledge, and experience in nutrition and HIV/AIDS. The focus of the discussion group is nutritional care and support for people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). The goal is to enhance positive living by promoting constructive dialogue between PLWHA, front-line workers, researchers, HIV/AIDS specialists, program managers, and policy makers. The expected outcomes of the discussion group are improved access to state-of-the-art information on nutritional care and support for PLWHA for professionals in the field, motivation of front-line workers to increase and improve nutritional care and support for PLWHA, empowerment of PLWHA through the experience of others living positively with HIV through proper nutrition, and consensus among front-line workers and policy makers on the importance of nutritional care and support for PLWHA.
