[...] Call The Interagency Coalition on AIDS and Development (ICAD), on behalf of the Southern African Nutrition Initiative, invites Canadian organizations to submit Expressions of Interest to engage in twinning partnerships and implement community based projects that address issues related to HIV, gender, SRHR and nutrition in Ntchisi and Dowa, Malawi and in Mpika and Shiwa Ng’andu, Zambia.
