Clusters

In 2004, thanks to funding from The Rockefeller Brothers Fund, CINDI undertook an Organisational Development exercise to promote collaboration between Members. This resulted in the clustering of groups of Members who provide similar services to vulnerable children.

These Clusters are:

• Children in Care Cluster
• Community Development Cluster (Nutrition/ Umsoco)
• Home Based Care (Thapelo Medicines Access)
• Schools and Youth Development Cluster/ Psychosocial Support Cluster

Strategic Thinking: This new cluster facilitates debate and discussion around what the future holds for children affected by HIV and AIDS to inform and enrich Members strategies at a macro level.

The Clusters seek to:

• Share models and approaches to interventions
• Receive and provide training
• Identify problems and find solutions
• Conduct research
• Source funding for their activities
