1.2
Ensure that "lesbian and gay" rights are seen in the broader context of human rights.

1.3
Support all groups whose mandate is to challenge policies that are discriminatory with regards to the rights of all people.

2.
The Pride Committee’s adoption and support of this programme is based on:

2.1
The support HIV/AIDS organisation in highlighting the struggle for affordable treatment for people living with HIV/AIDS in South Africa.

Provide and distribute literature dealing with HIV/AIDS and safer sexual practices.
