Designing Hope Africa
Description
Excerpted from the website description:
- Support people living with HIV AIDS in Africa, and get them access to treatments, medical care, psychological support, counselling, nutrition education. Get people infected by HIV AIDS access to improved living conditions with the virus, including reducing stigma from their community. Initiate community actions to improve living conditions, hygiene, and reduce the side effects of the virus and protect the population from other diseases. Create employment and empowerment opportunities for disadvantaged people in Southern Africa, especially people affected or infected by HIV/AIDS. These opportunities will also be available to any population at risk that needs to be informed and aware of the virus. Encourage sustainable income generating activities. These activities can be home based, to reinforce the family, or linked to support groups in a community setting, to encourage attendance at such groups. Encourage creativity, cultural exchanges to support awareness campaigns, and to sensitize the community at large. .
