UCT's response to HIV/AIDS
UCT continues to play an important role in responding to the HIV/AIDS challenge within the education sector through leadership and management, teaching, research, and outreach.
Through its programmes, the university aims to provide prevention, treatment, care and support for its thousands of students and employees.
UCT has a co-ordinated policy on HIV infection which outlines its institutional response through staff and student support services; incorporating HIV/AIDS teaching into the academic curricula; and support of ongoing and innovative research related to HIV and AIDS.
The Vice-Chancellor is accountable for the university's coordinated HIV/AIDS policy.
HIV/AIDS Institutional Co-Ordination Unit (HAICU) is responsible for co-ordinating the university's response to HIV/AIDS, as well as implementing many aspects of the HIV/AIDS policy.
