I work as a Senior Community Liaison Officer (HIV and AIDS) and my role is to coordinate the activities of different partners in order to strengthen the multi-sectoral HIV and AIDS response in the region. I also work closely with communities and support group members through nutrition and livelihood projects. Through community led structures, we raise awareness on HIV epidemic drivers we monitor changes within communities. We believe in the principle of using local resources and finding local solutions to problems within the community. Of-course there are numerous social issues that are challenging such as alcohol misuse, teenage pregnancy, low levels of education, unemployment, gender based violence especially rape and cultural practices that make women and girls vulnerable to HIV infection, however we continue to raise awareness and promote multi-stakeholder response.
