HIV / Aids

is having a devastating impact in Zambia. To avoid a total loss of all the achievements made in the social and health sector in the past years, it is necessary that people in Zambia are changing their lifestyle. As of 2000, 21.5% of adults age 15-45 are HIV (+), and over 10% of the under 15 population are orphaned.  Only through a change of the sexual behaviour of the Zambian people can this social, economic and spiritual disaster be stopped.

10% of these kids are orphans

In hospitals, over 50% of the adult inpatients are HIV+
