South East Asia HIV/AIDS Resource Exchange (SHARE)

The South East Asia HIV/AIDS Resource Exchange (SHARE) is a unique web portal providing practical programming information and other valuable resources related to HIV/AIDS in the Greater Mekong Region (GMR). Regularly updated with new information and resources, SHARE communicates the work underway in the region by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and its cooperating agencies. Read more about SHARE.

The USAID Regional Development Mission/Asia, Office of Public Health (RDMA/OPH) is working vigorously with coordinating agencies in the GMR to slow the spread of HIV and to mitigate the effects of HIV and AIDS on individuals and their societies. Through the Greater Mekong Regional program, USAID funds anti-HIV activities in the cross-border region of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic (PDR), Thailand, and Vietnam, and to a lesser extent, in Burma and in China’s Yunnan and Guangxi Provinces. USAID also operates a country program in Cambodia.
