5. Trade union and international development consultant to the UK Coalition of People Living with HIV and AIDS, London, UK
"Andy has worked in both a voluntary and paid capacity for the UK Coalition of People Living with HIV and AIDS (UKC) since 2004. In that time he has successfully built strong ties between the UKC and many UK trade unions, enabling the voices and needs of people living with HIV and AIDS (plwha) to be heard by trade unions and within the workplace in general. As a result he has helped the UKC to meet one of our key objectives which is to create workplaces that are freer from stigma and discrimination against plwha at work and to better understand the needs of plwha, especially as it applies in the workplace. More recently Andy took the initiative to assist the UKC to develop a strategic partnership with the International Labour Organisation, thus enabling us to build up our international work in order to share our experiences and to learn from others."

"I have worked with Andy Harvey for nearly two years on the Global Advocacy project. I have much appreciated his professional and effective approach to project management. He has coordinated a disparate group of project partners to ensure we achieve our stated objectives and much more. His understanding of education, environment, health and labour rights issues has bolstered the positive content of the project and its potential impact. All this has been underpinned by good humour in overcoming difficulties and by providing myself and colleagues with genuine support. I look forward to working with him on the design, development and management of projects in the future."
