The HIV/AIDS Coordinating Committee (HACC) (គណៈកម្មការសំរបសំរួលប្រយុទ្ធនឹងជំងឺអេដស៍) is an HIV/AIDS Cambodian non-governmental network representing over 120 NGOs working with the disease in Cambodia. It was established in 1993 to coordinate civil-society organizations and promote the sharing of information, experiences, and advances in the field among these organizations to address HIV/AIDS in Cambodia.

Leadership

HACC is governed by a voluntary steering committee elected from the NGO's membership.

Tim Vora is the HACC's executive director.

Activities

HACC provides opportunities for networking among members and other civil-society networks to encourage policy change and protection for people living with HIV/AIDS and develop preventive measures. The organization works with the government, international donors, and the UN by:

HACC and other members working with HIV/AIDS focus on youth as most at-risk people (MARP), along with orphans and vulnerable children (OVCs), injecting drug users (IDU/DU), sex workers, and prisoners. In the National Strategic Plan III (NSPIII) 2011–2015, HACC played a role in coordinating and facilitating the participation of civil societies in planning and launching the plan,[1][2] Water Festival Day,[3] and World AIDS Day[4] in coordination with Cambodia's National AIDS Authority.[5]
