Abstract |
Some of the mains priority areas contained in this Strategic Plan for HIV/AIDS are: to explore opportunities for strengthening existing MoE management capacity and structures in order to effectively deliver the HIV/AIDS and education programme; to introduce an elaborate programme of materials development, training and education, sensitisation and advocacy for teachers and educators at all levels which combines access to accurate information on HIV/AIDS, prevention and risk reduction, stress management and counseling services, access to contraception, and empowerment in personal decision-making; to emphasize activities targeting the 5-14 age group as they are most likely to be HIV free and thus constitute the window of hope for the future; and, to establish a lively and sustained advocacy and sensitization campaign to break the silence, stigma, shame and discrimination surrounding HIV/AIDS.
