HIV/AIDS in South Africa
South Africa may be one of Africa's strongest economies, but the HIV pandemic has weakened the nation, taking a severe toll on its adult workforce. With one of the highest HIV prevalence rates on the planet (Over 20% of the population aged between 15 and 49 is HIV positive), South Africa has witnessed the devastating effects of this disease further stretch the resources of a public health system already stretched to capacity.
Given that HIV/AIDS affects every sector of our society, all initiatives – awareness campaigns, care for the affected and research – are strengthened by a partnership approach.
The strength of local communities can help fight the epidemic by supporting those affected by HIV, and helping community groups and local NGO's to better build and utilise skills and resources for improved care and prevention.
