Tanzania - HIV/AIDS
Tanzania is one of the countries most severely affected
by the HIV/AIDS epidemic. A number of local AIDS education efforts
have been launched over the past decade, several of which have yielded
measurable, positive outcomes. Despite these successes, many barriers
to effective dissemination of AIDS information exist, and large
population groups still lack basic information on how to protect
themselves from infection. Although effective school-based AIDS
education programs are available, these have yet to be implemented
consistently and persistently throughout the public school system,
where the majority of adolescents can be reached.
