What is PLDI?

The Positive Leadership Development Institute (PLDI) offers people living with HIV an opportunity to identify and develop their leadership and resilience skills.
  • We believe that strong leaders create stronger communities.
  • We honour the leadership of the past; value the leadership of today; and inspire leadership for the future.
The PLDI program aims to create a network of informed and empowered people living with HIV (PLHIV) who will participate in and influence their local communities.

The Positive Leadership Development Institute exists with the purpose of supporting people who are living with HIV/AIDS to realise their leadership potential and increase their capacity to participate meaningfully in community life.
