TAC District Blogs Treatment Action Campaign

17Aug/12Off

TAC doing education and raising awareness in Kwanokuthula (EDEN district)!

Our TACcies moved into Kwanokuthula and did a workshop with community members that included TAC members from the area.  This is one of the poorest areas within EDEN district.  The workshop was facilitated in a storeroom next to a scrap yard.  On the other side of the storeroom was a soup kitchen where old people were queuing in a long line with more than forty people for food.  More than 50% of the youth is unemployed and the youth in the area is caught up in the cycle of substance and drug abuse.

A range of topics were covered in  the workshop that included a political discussion, Prevention and Treatment Literacy, Budget Monitoring and Expenditure Tracking, Social Security, National Health Insurance, a female condom demonstration and community health mobilization.

  1. You’re so cool! I don’t think I’ve truly read anything like this before. So wonderful to discover another person with a few original thoughts on this issue. Really.. thanks for starting this up. This web site is one thing that is required on the internet, someone with some originality!

  2. Aha, it is as if you read my mind! You appear to understand
    so much with this topic, like you published the handbook in
    it or something like that. Carry on generating awesome stuff similar to this!
