The information collected was systematized using Atlas-TI software, and content analysis was performed according to its categories and dimensions.RESULTS:
These items were a contribution to capacity the previous work of CSOs allowed the sensibilization of population and authorities to STD-HIV and to the implemented program; the coordination with government and other involved actors.LIMITATIONS:
