WAC has become one of the most influential platforms for people worldwide to unite in the fights against HIV to advocate for issues including the availing of ARVs to all who needed and financial resources for the HIV epidemic.

“To make this dream a reality, the government of the Kingdom of Eswatini, through NERCHA will provide a kick-start programme directed at supporting people living with HIV at grassroots level with a Regional Small Grants Programme.”

The impact of this funding, according to the Eswatini HIV Incidence Measurement Survey (SHIMS 2), has seen a drastic decline of new HIV infections in the kingdom by almost half (44%) from 2.5 per cent to 1.4 per cent among adults (ages 18-49 years).

“From these numbers, how do we get to the people; how do we disseminate these results and make sense to them. Let us go and engage our front-line people and make them understand," said the PS in the Ministry of Health, Dr Simon Zwane.
