Grassroots spreading of information on the cures and consequences of the disease must be emphasized and supported. The group is concentrating on making a vaccine instead of using the large market approach of curing the disease after it is acquired. The group is currently developing 12 different vaccines in hope that one will prove to be effective. The disease is controls all facets of life in numerous African countries. The disease has led to security threats as countries that have high rates of the syndrome become unstable and must focus more attention on the disease rather than on the economy.
Education is also a key factor in slowing the spread of the disease in Africa.
Another problem that severely plagues Africa today is that of a need for an economic infrastructure. This term is defined in the American Heritage Dictionary as, the fundamental base for an organization or system . In economic terms, each country requires a group of basic facilities, services and installations in order to have a healthy and hopefully efficient economic system. Poverty must be tackled first. The international community has tried to contribute toward finding a solution by offering economic aid, be in the forms of grants or loans that can either be directly sent from a country in the North like France to a less developed country in the South, such as Mozambique.
