Image of From Tragedy Towards Hope

Subtitled: Men, women and the AIDS epidemic, this book uses real life stories of men and women living with HIV to describe the impact of the HIV virus on people and communities, and the initiatives taken by UNAIDS and the UN Development Fund for Women to minimise this impact. It delves into the myths and rituals that surround women, sex and sexuality and offers an understanding of the human causes and consequences of the epidemic for those affected, their families, communities and society at large. Pertinent questions for development agencies are also raised and discussed.
