The Formation & Empowerment of Community Groups

Based on the success of BDAIDSCOUNCIL youth group (Penyinar), we at BDAIDSCOUNCIL plan to reach out to Brunei’s grass-root level community groups in society in order to further educate and empower them with knowledge regarding issues concerning HIV and AIDS locally.
