The Balarc Foundation functions as a privately held company with a commitment to advancing a brighter future. It collaborates with grassroots organisa Read moretions, self-help groups, and networks to offer technical, institutional, and financial assistance for the welfare and rights of Populations at Risk (PAR). These vulnerable groups, prone to contracting sexual diseases due to their behaviours, are a primary focus for Balarc, which expedites the development of HIV treatments and promotes sexual health improvements. Balarc is actively involved in community development, facilitating the formation of new grassroots organisations for PAR and other marginalized communities. It also supports NGOs and local partners in establishing HIV self-help initiatives and capacity-building services. Recognising the social exclusion and discrimination faced by PAR, leading to harassment, violence, and sexual exploitation, Balarc is deeply engaged in advocacy efforts. These efforts span local, national, and international policy development, seeking to create a fair and secure environment for PAR. The foundation's overarching objectives include enhancing sexual health, accelerating HIV treatment development, and empowering PAR with educational and vocational skills.
