Our Organisation

    
AIDES was set up in 1984 and was state-approved in 1990. It is the leading HIV/Aids organisation in France.
 
Since the beginning, the objective of the organisation has been to reach people infected and / or affected by Aids in order to organise themselves and cope with this new disease. 
Join us in this fight which is now more important than ever!  
Our philosophy is to say that infected or affected people are not merely bystanders; they are there to initiate and lead actions, to play an active role in the health system and to be part of important public health decisions which are of direct interest to them. Together we are stronger.
 
Spread this message as it is the way to fight Aids.
 


 
“First we wanted to lift the leaden silence that surrounds the lives of HIV positive people and the fight against Aids (…) because experience has shown that there has been no change in the lives of HIV positive people if they are not there to say in which direction society must go”.
 
 
Christian Saout, honorary president of AIDES
