The Transnational Origin of a Local Response to HIV/AIDS in Henan Province

For several years now, at a time when Henan remains one of the areas of China most heavily affected by the HIV/AIDS virus, peasants in several of the worst affected villages have supplemented the official policies and strategic approaches to deal with its spread by progressively mobilising and organising their own local measures to deal with the social challenges that AIDS imposes on rural communities. This article is particularly concerned with the transnational origin behind this local mobilisation.

ONG taiwanaises et VIH/Sida : du national au transnational

A Taiwan comme dans le reste du monde, les autorités sanitaires ont été confrontées ces dix dernières années à une augmentation inexorable des cas de contaminations au VIH/Sida. Des Organisations non gouvernementales (ONG) locales se sont engagées, en relation avec les autorités, dans une riposte nationale et régionale. Cet article analyse les modes et logiques d'action de ces acteurs non-étatiques ainsi que le caractère interactif et transnational de leur lutte.

Local NGOs have committed themselves, in partnership with the authorities, to a national and regional response. This article will look at the methods used by these non-state actors, at the reasoning behind their actions and at the interactive and transnational character of their struggle.
