Healing our communities one task force at a time

The Department of women, children and people with disability are in progress with a programme that will be coordinated over a week long for the UNAIDS high level task force.

This force will be implemented to help rid all local communities of teenage pregnancies; hate crimes and the elimination of mother to child transmission.

Minister of women, children and people with disability Lulu Xingwana  has confirmed that the task force will be hard at work trying to encourage, change and heal our communities from the ills that we face.

Many other organisations will be involved and from these interactions of the next few days, they will be able to confront these challenges of gender inequality and the scourge of HIV and AIDS and they are hoping to do it in an effective and sustainable manner.
