Dear Inspired Colleagues,

 

It is very essential to have the rural persons educated
on HIV/AIDS. So much has been done at the urban centres leaving
the rural people with very little knowledge on HIV/AIDS apart from
the basics on the same. I am working with an organization that is
researching on HIV/AIDS. It is clear from the information collected
that there are still myths on it. But with much dissemination of
information the people have been educated about what HIV is, what AIDS
is, transmission methods, ARTS, importance of VCT, how to form
support groups that have helped provide hope for both for the infected
and affected.

It is also important to help start up economic generating projects
In rural areas to ensure self reliance. Unless knowledge is spread
Far and wide then HIV is here to stay. Hence also the essence of
Taking ICTs to the rural areas to ensure shared information.
