CHC
Annual Meeting |
CHC organized its annual
2550/2007 meeting on 6 July 2550 at the CBCT Meeting Room chaired
by Most. Rev. John Bosco Panya Kritcharoen, CHC President.
|
|
It is due to the fact
that CBCT has a policy to manage its personnel as most relevant to
the nature of work and make the best use of the staff, but the old
structure sill causes some cumbersome obstacles such as CHD, originally
under the Department for Evangelization, is now under the Department
for Social Works with Most Rev. Philip Banjong Chaiyara as President
and Rev. Prasit Rujirat as Secretary General.
|
|
With the following new
changes of CHC staff: Rep. of Chiengmai Diocese - Rev. Viravit Sasai;
Rep. of St. Mary Hospital - Sr, Adella Pisutsinthop; Rep. of Camillian
Hospital - Rev. Phairat Sriprasert; Rep. of San Camillo Hospital -
Sr. Rungpet Phanwongsa; and at the same time there comes the CHC structural
change, it is therefore necessary to adjust the CHC office management
as well. So, we will have a meeting of persons concerned in order
to revise our new work regulations.

Along the above information
we wish to notify our work progress as following:
|
|
10 Catholic network
groups on AIDS throughout Thailand stopped joining with the "Community
Potential Development Project" supported by Global Fund after
1 year of cooperation because of the evaluation finding that there
has been some management and cooperation problem among the religious
networks. Hence, the 10 Catholic Network Groups withdrew themselves
from being supported by Global Fund, but still continue to coordinate
information and activities with the religious network groups working
on AIDS. |
|
Lessons
learned through working on AIDS project: The Catholic Sub-committee
on AIDS will make an evaluation on activities of member organizations
to find out the results, e.g. knowledge and experiences received from
the work, after which there will be a compilation of a handbook in
order to be the informative data in a joint activity or to extend
it to other projects. The sub-committee will prepare 2 handbooks:
1. Protection by the religious perspectives, and 2. Community Work.

Potential Development
for Children living with HIV Project: The Catholic Sub-committee on
AIDS received a sum of financial support from abroad to help Catholic
institutions working on orphanages for children living with HIV for
a period of 3 years. The sub-committee has decided to assist 4 such
institutions with a total of 138 HIV orphan children. The strategy
is to: 1. support all expenditures of the children residing in the
center, 2. develop suitable education for the children, and 3. develop
potential of the children carers. There will be a roving team making
a regular bi-monthly visit to the various fund-recipient institutions.
If the end-of-project evaluation finds that the project is successful
a further development project will be started at the community level.

Rev. Pairat
announced at the end that he would invite some knowledgeable persons
to be the executive members of the AIDS CHD committee. |
