Educating on HIV/AIDS

In recognising HIV and AIDS as a social issue, AMREF has been on the forefront educating communties about this scourge. This impact has been more significant in my community as many have happened to be transformed in the process. Key among protecting rights of people living with AIDS, non-discriminating and non-stigamitazion of the infected has been encouraged. Rights based approach to create an enabling environment for prevention, care and support programme thatinclude service, (like counselling  and testing, care and support), commodities (like condoms and drugs), and policies that reduce stigma and promote no-disrimination as well as quality service provision and uptake have been the way used to deal with the topic.
