Abstract
Over the past 2 years a nongovernmental organisation has evolved that facilitates intersectoral work in the HIV/AIDS field in the Okhahlamba Municipality. Okhahlamba Municipality is situated along the Drakensberg mountain range in KwaZulu Natal and is home to approximately 150 000 people. As in many rural areas of South Africa the community is characterised by high levels of poverty and illiteracy and subsequent poor health status. In trying to understand the process of setting up such an organisation it has been useful to reflect on Community Orientated Primary Care (COPC) as a conceptual framework. By reviewing the beginnings of intersectoral work in relation to the COPC model important lessons can be learnt for the future of the organisation. (excerpt)
