"HIV testing was mandatory to join a company and annual reviews," he said and acknowledged that this resolution was only a first step, since many companies still continue to make compulsory testing for HIV / AIDS.
Each of these experiences and comments added by participants made it clear that, despite the advances that have had many MCPs in the region, is still much to do and there is not enough involvement of some affected populations. This creates a major challenge within the CCM, which will have to seek new approaches to improve the functioning and transparency at the regional level. Alejandra
