Global Health Initiative-Private Sector Intervention Case Example

In 2002, GTG Executive Director, Cherie Nursalim, visited South Africa, and saw firsthand the impact of a large-scale HIV/AIDS epidemic on businesses and society. After returning home to Indonesia she became aware that without a significant investment in prevention from all sectors of society, Indonesia risked a similar future. In response to this threat she established a workplace prevention programme not only to reduce the risk to her businesses, but also to set an example for other businesses and other sectors of society.
