ERNA shares the policy strategy of the European Network of social activities (Red Europea de Actividades Sociales) on HIV and Drug Addiction, written in December 1996.
This document has become the starting point that made possible an internal debate in the European Region among NSs of RCRC, with the aim to raise awareness about the pandemic of Hiv/AIDS. The final result of this debate was a call to action and the creation of ERNA to respond to the emergency.
