We are all living with HIV and AIDS. Some of us are HIV positive. Many of us know someone who has HIV.
Some of us have lost a friend, relative or colleague because of HIV and AIDS. We also know children who are orphans beause of HIV and AIDS.
That is why it is important for communities to work together to prevent new HIV infections.
Communities need to stand up and say that more than one sexual partner puts you and your loved ones at risk. We need to support the OneLove campaign.
Take action
Support the OneLove campaign in your community
Couples, parents, young people, traditional leaders, religious leaders, teachers, political leaders, health and community workers can use this information alone or in group meetings.
For more information about activities that you can do to encourage your friends, family and community to have one sexual partner at a time, read this article.
You can also contact OneLove partners in your country to ask for more resources and to find out more about OneLove launch dates, materials or other campaign details.

Share with us what your community is doing to encourage its members to have one sexual partner at a time. Write a short summary of your activities and email it to onelove@soulcity.org.za. OneLove will publish selected stories on the front page of the web site.
