Moderator’s Note:
Dr. Harikumar’s response offers his view on the nomenclature of Behaviour Change Communication, which may be of interest to the Community. BCC as a concept can be another excellent topic for debate; however, for this query we encourage participants to continue sending in their examples and experiences. Thanks.

Is the numbers game important while working with CBOs? argues Seema Kurup. No doubt, this is an important question to be discussed while Monitoring and Evaluating NGOs working with CBOs. Nonetheless we urge members to answer more on Building the Management capacities of CBOs.

Moderator’s Note:
The material in the posting by Dr. Ajay Singh to the appended query was from the document "Condom Programming for HIV Managers" by UNFPA, WHO and PATH. In the original message this was not stated. The error was discovered during our editorial team’s review of the original postings. We here by retract the message posted on July 6, 2006 from the discussion on the “Query: Condom Usage by Sex Workers” and the document will be considered as a recommended document from Dr. Singh in the ensuing Consolidated Reply.

Edits – How they come
I would like to raise a simple point here that doesn't sound convincing to me. From your mail, responding to PLHIV with disabilities in India you have mentioned that PLHIV is a "DISABILITY" in itself. I would strongly disagree with that statement.
Lack of knowledge on HIV for PLHIV can make it a disability for them. But it certainly its NOT a disability. HIV is not end of life, there is life after HIV and in no way a disabled one. And by giving it a name of disability, you are adding stigma and discrimination to PLHIV.
I am in no way trying to offend you but trying to give you different perspective. I hope you can pass this on next time, instead of calling it a disability. Lets help prevent the stigma and discrimination and not add on to it.
I hope I have not offended you by this mail.

Edits – How they go
In addition, I would like to raise a simple point here that does not sound convincing to me. From Mr. Samir Roy's mail, it is mentioned that being a PLHIV is itself a Disability. I was wondering about that statement. Rather, it is lack of knowledge on HIV for PLHIV that can make HIV a disability for them. Certainly, HIV is not a disability. For, HIV is not end of life, there is life after HIV and in no way a disabled one. By giving it a tag of disability, are we not adding stigma and discrimination to PLHIV? I am in no way trying to offend but trying to give a different perspective. In this, I hope I am wrong.
