The OneLove Regional Campaign will enjoy another milestone on Saturday when Zimbabwe launches its OneLove national campaign.
The launch of the OneLove Campaign in Zimbabwe takes place at the Meikles Hotel in Harare. Zimbabwe’s Minister of Health and Child Welfare, Dr. Henry Madzorera, is expected to officiate at the campaign.
About 150 people, who are mainly stakeholders in the HIV and AIDS prevention sector in Zimbabwe and in the region, are expected to participate in the event.
Zimbabwe joins Tanzania, Lesotho, South Africa and Swaziland, which have already launched their in-country campaigns.
In-country campaign partners
Zimbabwe’s OneLove Campaign is spearheaded by Action, a partner to Soul City Institute, a health and development communication NGO in South Africa, in partnership with the Zimbabwean Ministry of Health and Child Welfare and the National AIDS Council (NAC).
The OneLove Campaign partners in Zimbabwe include organisations working on HIV prevention initiatives such as the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), Southern Africa HIV And AIDS Information Dissemination Service (SAFAIDS) , Zimbabwe AIDS Prevention Services Organisation (ZAPSO), United Nations Children’s Education Fund (UNICEF), Zimbabwe Community Health Intervention Research Project (ZICHIRE) and Zimbabwe AIDS Network (ZAN).
UNFPA and SAFAIDS have already produced multi-media materials on OneLove as part of the united force which is addressing the pandemic in Zimbabwe.
